A Will or No Will
March 10, 2011
When it comes to estate planning, the three questions I typically hear are:
- how to write a will
- how to ensure that property is likely to end up in the “right” hands
- how to manage the “German” issues such as child custody for minors, assets in Germany etc.
After I provide answers or send them our questionnaire often I hear … nothing! As if the fact to write a will will shorten their life span.
This leads to the question: What happens when a person dies without a will? Under German law and for example North Carolina law there are provisions known as dying “intestate” or “gesetzliche Erbfolge“, which is a way to distribute assets and to take care of minors.
But is this what you would like?
