but only the necessary main documents.
We can send you a complete list only after a detailed analysis of your case.
Succession
The debate over successions (inheritances) is an important element of "civilian life".
As a rule, in order for an heir to be able to enter into the ownership and use of the inherited assets, he must ask the competent Notary Public to initiate and complete the notarial succession procedure.
The territorial competence of the Notary Public refers to the last domicile of the deceased (registered as such in the Death Certificate) - in our case for those who had the last domicile in Bucharest competent is the Notary Public based in the Capital first notified.
Special rules apply in the case of proceedings concerning two deceased inheriting each other (successive successions) or in the case of two deceased comorians (those who died in the same circumstances without being able to determine which of them died first).
If the successors do not agree on the extent of their rights or the composition of the estate, then the Notary Public will suspend the notarial procedure and will direct the parties to the Court.
Last Will
A person is free to decide, at any time during his life, on some or all of his property, which will be in his estate at the date of death - to whom they will return, under what conditions, etc. This decision is usually embodied in a written document called a will . The will cannot be signed on the basis of a Power of Attorney.
The will can be drawn up, as a rule:
- in the form of a private signature, which must be written, signed and dated by the testator, or
- in the form of an authentic document, drafted by a Notary Public in accordance with the will of the testator.
The advantage of the authentic will is the fact that it is kept safe in the notarial archive, that it is drawn up and its ideal legal form is ensured according to the will. the testator, that his secrecy is ensured and that he is obligatorily registered by the Notary Public in The National Notarial Register of Liberalities (RNNEL), processed by the National Union of Notaries Public in Romania through the system of the National Center for the Administration of National Notarial Registers - Infonot (CNARNN).
The will may be revoked or modified by the testator at any time, in whole or in part, by another will or by a declaration of revocation.
