About the Event
Join us for an exclusive webinar designed to help you understand some important elements of French Succession Law and provide practical strategies for cross-border estate planning. Whether you are a French resident, own property in France or need to understand the rights of a surviving spouse, this session is for you.
The webinar will cover the following topics:
Legal Foundations: Understanding the French Civil Code, the definition of succession, and the hierarchy of heirs.
The "Reserved" Share: A breakdown of the Réserve Héréditaire—the mandatory portion of an estate that must go to children (50% to 75% depending on family size).
Spousal Protections: Comparing life interest (usufruit) versus full ownership and how to strengthen a spouse’s rights beyond the legal default.
Formalizing Your Will: The differences between a handwritten (holographic) will and a formal notarial will registered with the FCDDV.
