Property and financial matters related to inheritance in Lebanon are governed by Lebanese personal status laws and administered through Lebanese courts, banks, land registries, and public authorities. These matters often involve multiple institutions and strict procedural requirements, particularly when heirs reside outside Lebanon or when assets include bank accounts, real estate, or outstanding debts.

Our Property & Financial Services are designed to manage the legal and administrative aspects of inherited property and financial assets in Lebanon, ensuring that estate distribution is carried out lawfully, accurately, and in accordance with court decisions and applicable Lebanese law.
