General information on legal service
An estate is a legal term that describes all the assets that a person left behind after he passed away, both tangible and intangible, and which must be distributed among his heirs. Inheritance law is a complex field that deals with the distribution of assets after the death of their owners. In other words, an inheritance and estates lawyer deals, among other things, in drawing up wills according to a person's wishes while still alive, and executing them after his death. While it is in principle possible to draw up a will independently, it is recommended to contact an inheritance and estates lawyer in order to make sure that the will will have binding and irrevocable legal validity can be appealed. Alternatively, if a person wishes to claim a share of any inheritance and does not appear in the will, he must use an inheritance lawyer in order to improve his chances.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a will and an inheritance?
When a person passes away, his property is supposed to be divided among people who are left alive (and they are called heirs). If the deceased left behind a written document detailing the manner of distribution of the property according to his wishes, the document is referred to as a will and has binding legal effect. If he did not leave a will, then the inheritance law applies and it defines how who will receive the property. In some cases, when the will is not clear or when a certain person who is not mentioned in it claims to be entitled to part of the inheritance, inheritance disputes may arise that should be resolved in court - and for this reason it is recommended to hire an inheritance and estates lawyer.
When should I make a will?
as soon as possible! Even at a young age, even when there is not a large amount of property - it is recommended not to postpone the writing of the will until an unknown date in the future ("when we reach retirement"...) simply because it is impossible to know what will happen tomorrow. If, God forbid, a person passes away before he had time to write a will, then bitter inheritance disputes may arise between his heirs and spoil relationships in a significant way. Having a will can prevent these conflicts, especially if it was drawn up with the help of a will and inheritance lawyer. Apart from that, you can always draw up a will if you want to make changes to it.
Does the geographic location of an inheritance attorney matter?
A will is a binding legal document and it is recommended to use a lawyer to make sure it has legal validity. Since it is not customary to update wills often, there is usually no need to choose a lawyer based on geographic proximity. On the other hand, a person who wants to claim part of an inheritance may see a benefit in being physically close to the lawyer accompanying him in the process, in order to hold frequent meetings when necessary. For example, some will want to hire an inheritance and estates lawyer in Pardes Hana Karkur if they themselves live in the area, but it is not necessary.
