Inheritance and family
We specialise in inheritance and probate matters, and our lawyers have extensive experience in assisting clients at various stages of life.
The more assets and wealth you have, the more important it is to make sound choices and assessments. This applies both to agreements made during marriage and cohabitation, and to the distribution of assets and wealth upon death. In today’s society, where it is common to have children who are ‘yours’, ‘mine’ and ‘ours’, it is particularly important to make thorough and sound assessments in advance; otherwise, the costs and consequences can be significant. We currently have three permanent public estate administrators for Hordaland District Court.
Among other things, we can help with:
- Public administration of an estate
- Private administration of an estate
- Generational change
- Gifts and advances on inheritance from parents to children (intergenerational transfer)
- Drawing up wills
- Declaration of consent regarding undivided ownership
- Marriage contracts
- Cohabitation Agreement
- Financial settlement following the breakdown of a relationship between married couples and cohabiting partners
- Enduring power of attorney
- Management of funds belonging to minors
- Assistance with legal proceedings and probate disputes
