Rights of the surviving spouse or partner

We support and represent surviving spouses and stable partners (parella estable) in claiming their inheritance rights, both out of court and in court.

We advise on:

• The widow’s quarter (quarta vidual): defending the right of the surviving spouse or stable partner to up to a quarter of the estate.
• The year of widowhood (any de plor): advice on the rights recognised during the year following the death.
• Widow’s pension: support in claiming and managing any widow’s pension you may be entitled to.
• Universal usufruct in intestate succession: assistance in exercising the use and enjoyment of the inherited assets when there is no will.

Before bringing any claim, we carry out a detailed study of your personal and financial situation, review the relevant documents and assess the legal options available to decide on the most suitable strategy.
