AL MAHDY LAW FIRM
Inheritance & Estate Lawyer in Egypt for Foreigners
Discuss an Egyptian inheritance or estate matter with Al Mahdy Law Firm in English. Begin with the countries involved, available civil records, assets concerned and whether an existing proceeding or deadline needs attention.
Build a clear estate file
Cross-border estate work starts with understanding the requested task and the available records. Identify the deceased person’s country connections, the assets and the people involved. The firm can then assess the questions and agree the document work, advice or representation required without assuming the same rules apply to every family.
What to prepare for the first discussion
- Available death and civil records
- Documents identifying the assets concerned
- Existing estate or court references
- Countries involved and any deadline
How the service starts
- Describe the estate task and countries involved.
- List available records and missing information.
- Agree document review and any representation required.
- Confirm scope, fees and further steps.
Timing, fees and original documents
Professional fees, authority charges, translation and delivery are itemised before work begins. A proposed timeframe depends on the complete file and the relevant authority’s schedule. Agree whether originals are needed, who holds them and how they will be returned.
Questions answered
Can a foreign family discuss assets in Egypt?
Yes. Identify the assets, countries involved and available records. The firm assesses the requested work and relevant cross-border questions.
Are translated or attested documents always needed?
The required form depends on the issuing country, document and receiving authority. The team checks the requirement for the particular task.
Can you confirm inheritance shares from a short enquiry?
No. Applicable law, family circumstances and records must be assessed. A general enquiry is not a determination of shares or rights.
