The Problem

Does This Sound Familiar?

Here's what our clients face before coming to us:

🕊️

A difficult time with unfamiliar procedures

You're grieving, and suddenly facing court forms, heirs' declarations and document requirements you've never dealt with.

📋

Every heir and document must be exact

Names, relationships and documents must match precisely across passports, IDs and certificates — one mismatch delays everything.

Banks and assets stay frozen

Until the inheritance count is issued, accounts, properties and salaries of the deceased remain blocked.

🌍

Heirs abroad complicate things

Overseas heirs need POAs and attested documents — coordinated correctly, or the file stalls.

FAQ

Common Questions

How long does the inheritance count take?
With complete documents, typically within days to a couple of weeks — we've completed court inheritance files for clients in record time thanks to daily experience with the Personal Status Court.

Not necessarily — absent heirs can be represented by POA. We prepare those POAs too, including for heirs abroad.
The deceased is non-Muslim / from another country — does that change things?
The applicable law can differ. We advise you on the correct path for your situation before filing.
What happens after the count is issued?
The count is the key that unlocks everything: bank releases, property transfers and estate distribution. We assist with each following step.
