Evidence and document review
Our review covers the will and earlier versions, death and identity records, available execution or registration records, asset locations and any probate or estate orders. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.
Can a will benefit an heir or exceed one third of the estate?
A bequest to an heir needs the other heirs’ approval after death; partial approval operates against the approving shares. Amounts above one third ordinarily need heir approval too. Article 191 provides exceptions where there are no heirs or only a spouse. Identify the beneficiaries and estate before assessing validity and implementation. Do not assume automatic effect. The document, the deceased's relevant connections, asset location and any existing order need review under the applicable jurisdiction's rules. Recognition of the document and authority to transfer a particular asset must be checked separately.
