Attorney · BRANDAUER Rechtsanwälte, Salzburg

Inheritance matters are handled by Mag. Bernhard Brandauer together with a coordinated team. We examine the will, compulsory portion, gifts and deadlines and tell you clearly where you stand.

In Austria children as well as spouses and registered partners are entitled to a compulsory portion. The compulsory portion generally remains even where a valid will exists. How high it turns out depends on values, gifts and documents.

This self-assessment guides you through the four axes basis of claim, estate values, gifts and documents. It orders which points are open and which documents you should gather.

The result is orientation and not a calculation. It names no euro amounts and no quota. For a deeper view our team is available.
