• Authors: Szeroczyńska, Małgorzata

Abstracts

EN

The article discusses the first steps that need to be taken once a testator has died. It details how to refuse an inheritance and lists situations when this is the best decision for an heir with intellectual disability. It also presents differences in liability for inheritance debts depending on how an inheritance is accepted: through simple inheritance or with the benefit of an inventory. Moreover, it describes the procedure of compiling an inventory, both a full inventory and an inventory list, showing which option is safer for an heir with intellectual disability. The article concludes with a discussion of will opening and reading, which is a necessary step to obtain a court confirmation of inheritance acquisition or a deed of succession certification. These will be discussed in Part 2.
