My fortune, my inheritance – and my will: I say who inherits what from me. Yes, that sounds like a plan. But it doesn’t work that way, because in this country there is still the right to a compulsory portion. So if you want to completely disinherit your children, for example, you have had bad luck. What you can do? We’ve done research.
In the fairy tale, the main characters live happily ever after.

This is only possible in very few cases: “Serious disinheritance reasons are required by law”, emphasize inheritance law experts Vincent Schneider and Wendelin Moritz.
