Wills
A will is created to safeguard the family estate and pass it on to heirs, including descendants, ascendants, or siblings, ensuring that the estate remains within the family.

But a will also allow you to make other decisions:
- If you have minor children, you can appoint an administrator of property to prevent your ex-partner from administering your estate and your children’s inheritance in your absence.
- You can leave guidelines or clauses to protect your spouse or common-law partner.
- You can create a will that avoids risks and is not overly complex, making it easier to apply and reducing the likelihood of conflicts.
Inheritance includes various aspects, such as gifts during your lifetime and estate planning. Throughout history, legal experts have developed a vast body of knowledge that can help you avoid common issues and ensure that your heirs’ rights and your final wishes are respected.
Will in favour of NGOs
The Civil Code includes provisions for compulsory inheritance in favour of ‘forced heirs’. However, if there are individuals who have no heirs, their property will become the property of the State upon their death.
Those who are aware that they do not have heirs according to the line of succession provided for by law (descendants, ascendants, siblings) can create a will that donates their assets to the NGOs of their choice.
