Individual arrangements for a clear distribution of assets
A will or inheritance agreement allows you to arrange your estate according to your wishes and avoid conflicts among heirs. While the will represents an individual’s disposition of their assets, the inheritance agreement enables binding agreements between the testator and future heirs. Both instruments offer flexibility but must be precisely formulated and structured in accordance with legal requirements to avoid legal disputes.
The attorneys at MTR Legal are here to assist you in the creation and review of wills and inheritance agreements. With our solid legal expertise, we support you in clearly and legally securing your wishes, taking advantage of tax benefits, and preventing disputes in the estate case.

Clear regulations for legally secure asset distribution
A will is the central instrument for individually regulating the distribution of the estate and deviating from the statutory succession. Whether it concerns the preferential treatment of certain heirs, the establishment of a legacy, or the imposition of conditions – the design options are numerous. However, the formal requirements of the law must be strictly adhered to in order to ensure the validity of the will.
MTR Legal provides comprehensive advice on the creation of a legally secure will. We assist you in formulating clear and unambiguous provisions, take into account compulsory portions, and assess tax implications. Our goal is to legally enforce your last wishes and shape the estate according to your preferences.
Joint planning with legal security
An inheritance contract offers the opportunity to establish binding agreements between the testator and the future heirs. It is often used to set forth business succession arrangements, mutual dispositions, or long-term obligations. Unlike a will, an inheritance contract cannot be unilaterally changed, which provides additional security for the parties involved.
The law firm MTR Legal assists you in drafting and reviewing inheritance contracts. We advise you on the legal framework, clarify the tax implications, and help you formulate clear and sustainable agreements. With a well-thought-out inheritance contract, you create a legally secure basis for a harmonious estate settlement.

Legally compliant design taking legal claims into account
Mandatory inheritance claims play a central role in estate planning, as certain relatives, such as children, spouses, or parents, have a right to a minimum share of the estate regardless of the will or inheritance contract. Ignoring these claims can lead to the planned estate arrangement being contested.
MTR Legal provides advice on how to take mandatory inheritance claims into account in wills and inheritance contracts. We assess how these claims can be fulfilled, reduced, or balanced through other agreements. Our goal is to develop a legally secure solution that considers both your wishes and the legal requirements.
Efficient implementation of your estate arrangements
A power of attorney or the appointment of an executor ensures that your estate is handled according to your wishes. While the power of attorney grants a representative legal authority in the event of illness or death, the executor ensures the proper execution of your will or inheritance contract.
The attorneys at MTR Legal assist you in creating powers of attorney and planning for estate execution. We advise you on selecting suitable individuals, formulate legally clear instructions, and ensure that your arrangements are accurately implemented. With our help, you create security for your estate and minimize the risk of disputes.
