06 / FAQ

We answer your questions

What is probate (posesión efectiva)?

The procedure that recognizes who the heirs of a deceased person are and allows them to dispose of the assets.

Can I leave my assets to anyone I want?

Not entirely. The law reserves a share for certain heirs; you can freely decide on the rest.

How much is inheritance tax?

It depends on the value of the assets and the relationship. We calculate it at the outset to avoid surprises.

What is a family protocol?

An agreement among members of a business family setting rules for governance, work and succession in the company.
