MATRIMONIAL CONTRACTS
A publicly notarized matrimonial contract gives both partners the possibility, in the event of death, of entrusting to the other the assets that they built up together. Depending on the situation, it can be advantageous to deviate from a legal matrimonial property scheme and, instead, draw up an agreement of conjugal community of property or a separation of property.

TESTAMENTS AND INHERITANCE CONTRACTS
You can determine how your property will be divided up through a hand-written or a publicly notarized testament. You can diverge from the legal succession and favour the persons who are really close to you. Careful attention must be directed, however, to those protected by statutory heirship law (marriage partner, children and parents). Or, as your last will and testament, you establish a foundation. By concluding a publicly certified inheritance contract, you can regulate your estate according to your own individual desires – independent of the legal heirship Claims.
