Notaires as family advisors

Notaires have always provided the answers to families’ questions on legal, tax and estate issues: pre-nuptial agreements, gifts, wills, joint ownership agreements, family-owned non-trading companies and estate settlements.       

They are witnesses to the changes occurring in family structures (decrease in the number of marriages, increase in the number of civil unions and divorces) and family estates (mobility, adaptation to the various stages of life, establishment of mutual support mechanisms within families, over-indebtedness). They are rising to the challenge of the new needs resulting from these changes by proposing appropriate legal and tax solutions.     

The work of the notaire is not limited to dealing after the fact with the financial consequences of family events such as divorce, death or a disabling accident. They are also advisors whom families may consult at any time to prepare for the transfer of property or to change the structure of an estate, in accordance with their current and future needs (housing, retirement pension supplement).     

As legal and financial advisors to families, notaires help to prevent conflicts and minimise the number of lawsuits.
