In order to prove your identity and your subsequent right to inherit, it is essential for us to obtain legal documents such as a copy of your passport, driver’s licence and birth certificate. These documents make it possible to legally establish your identity and lineage and are required by the notaire, a public officer, in charge of settling the estate. On occasion, we may require the original copies of these documents, or request a certified translation, as well as an apostille (stamped official certificate) and legalisation.
In order to settle a case, we will need to collect some of your personal data at some point. Please note that we only collect and use personal data that is strictly necessary for the fulfilment of our research and establishment of your entitlement. Furthermore, the use of your personal data will always be in compliance with the European Regulation of 27 April 2016 on the protection of individuals in regards to the processing of personal data. (Please refer to the “Personal Data” tab for our personal data protection policy).
