Inheritance law and estate management
In the event of death, there will often be the same needs and opportunities for creating value-creating solutions as in the lifetime alternation of generations. Many people are unaware that marriage contracts and wills are necessary to ensure ownership and operation of companies – and that advice must be given and contracts formulated by consultants who have an understanding of business and a feeling for personal circumstances.
Astria Advokater creates solutions that safeguard the company, the family and assets both during lifetime and in the event of death. In any family with a business or wealth, formulating marriage contracts and wills are crucial considerations for securing important financial interests. Even families who do not own or run companies must still provide instructions on what is to happen in the event of death.
Where the family and wealth are spread across several countries or include emigrants from or immigrants to Denmark, cross-border issues arise that can be both surprising and complicated. We have considerable experience in this sphere and actively cooperate with foreign specialist lawyers through the IAG Global network to ensure effective clarification and competent solutions.
Uncertainty about the future can cause unnecessary worries, and misunderstandings can cause conflict.
Quick and competent advice can help in difficult times, and it is therefore a good idea to seek advice as early as possible.
Astria Advokater has extensive experience and skills relating to succession planning and in estate affairs.
