Inheritance and Wills

TEJADA ABOGADOS handles the most important issues that arise in the process of succession due to death, files applications with the courts for its opening, and assists and advises on the rights and obligations that the law grants to heirs, as well as those who are considering making a will, anticipating disputes and their sources, and establishing clauses to ensure greater harmony. 

 

However, whether there is a will or intestate succession rules must be applied, the distribution of assets and property can become a highly contentious and, in many cases, protracted process. In terms of litigation, these continue to represent one of the most sensitive and complex areas of civil and family law. 

 

When there is a will, the starting point seems clear: the testator's wishes must be carried out. However, this is not always easy to do. First, the legal validity of the document must be determined. A will can be challenged on the grounds of defects, doubts about the testator's mental capacity at the time of execution, or suspicion that it was executed under duress or deception. These challenges open the door to litigation, which can even reach the criminal, local, and cross-border spheres.
