At FH Jurídicos we support our clients throughout the process of estate partition and distribution, ensuring that the transfer of assets and rights is carried out clearly, fairly and in accordance with the law.
These procedures are essential to avoid family disputes, ensure the correct distribution of the estate and uphold the rights of all the heirs.
What are estate partition and distribution?
Estate partition: the act by which it is determined how the deceased's estate is divided among the heirs.
Estate distribution: the formal handing over of assets and rights to each heir, in accordance with the partition agreed or determined by the court.
The process can be carried out amicably between the heirs or, in the event of disagreement, through court proceedings.
