Estates and Determination of Heirs

We provide you with comprehensive legal support in the division and settlement of estates and the identification of heirs, to ensure that the rights of all beneficiaries are upheld in accordance with Islamic law and legal provisions. If you have a complex estate, undivided assets, or disputes among heirs regarding the distribution of shares and property, we will organize the case file, obtain the legal notice, and develop a clear strategy for dividing the estate—either by mutual agreement or through the courts. We explain all procedures to you clearly and transparently, keeping in mind that inheritance matters require great wisdom and care for family ties, as well as firmness in protecting your rights.

Obtaining Genetic Information and Conducting an Asset Inventory

We begin by taking the legal steps necessary to obtain a legal certificate of inheritance, while compiling an inventory of all the deceased’s assets, including real estate, land, funds in bank accounts, and business shares.

Drafting a Partition Agreement and Amicable Negotiations

We first seek to facilitate an amicable division of the estate among the heirs by drafting agreements and division contracts with specific terms, in a way that protects everyone’s rights, saves time, and prevents family rifts.

Appearances in Court in Partition Cases

If an amicable settlement cannot be reached, we represent the client before the competent courts in the Arab Republic of Egypt to file lawsuits for the division of the estate, the reservation of shares, or the inventory and administration of the estate.

Settlement of an Estate and Enforcement of Judgments

We handle the public auction process as necessary, settle the estate’s debts, and carry out any valid wills, if any, until each heir receives their full legal share.
