Inheritance Lawyer in Esenyurt

Renunciation of the inheritance is subject to a preclusive period of 3 months from learning of the death. Your case is handled by a lawyer familiar with the practice of Büyükçekmece Courthouse.

Inheritance Law Services for Esenyurt

With a population approaching two million, Esenyurt is Turkey's most populous district. Intense migration, a large labor market, and an active housing sector generate strong legal demand in employment, enforcement, criminal, and family law.

We serve our clients in Esenyurt across a broad spectrum — from employee receivables to eviction actions, and from criminal investigations to divorce proceedings — following their files in person at the Büyükçekmece Courthouse.

Inheritance law arises at the moments when family relationships are most sensitive, and its technical rules are strict. Once the 3-month period for renouncing the inheritance or the preclusive deadlines for an action for reduction are missed, there is no way back. Our office provides services across all inheritance matters: obtaining the certificate of inheritance, determining and administering the estate, dividing estate assets, actions for the decedent's collusive (sham) transfers (muris muvazaası — concealing assets from heirs), drafting and contesting wills and inheritance contracts, and renunciation of inheritance.
