Inheritance Law

Inheritance law is the legal field that governs how a deceased person’s estate is distributed among heirs. It determines the rights of individuals over their assets before death, regulates wills, and protects the rights of heirs. Additionally, inheritance law ensures both fairness among heirs and the execution of the testator’s wishes. 

Inheritance law in Turkey is based on the Turkish Civil Code, and the distribution of assets is determined within the framework of legal provisions, the testator’s will, and court decisions. It regulates not only individual inheritance rights but also the inheritance-related legal relationships of legal entities.

Inheritance Law

The inheritance distribution process is shaped by fundamental concepts such as wills, statutory inheritance, and succession. Furthermore, inheritance law covers disputes that arise during inheritance, including objections, conflicts, asset distribution issues, and the settlement of debts.
