Inheritance & Succession Lawyer in Lebanon
Michel Eid Law Firm assists individuals and families with inheritance and succession matters in Lebanon — whether you live in Beirut or abroad. Succession in Lebanon depends on the facts of each estate and on the regime applicable to it, so the first step is a paid consultation in which we review your situation and tell you what can realistically be done.
Remote consultation — up to 30 minutes, USD 100. Paid before the appointment.
How the firm can assist
Areas we are most often asked about. Ongoing representation and complex matters are quoted after review.
Wills and succession guidance
Reviewing your situation or a family estate and explaining the options available to you under the applicable Lebanese regime.
Inherited property questions
Advice on real-estate assets forming part of an estate, including title and co-ownership questions between heirs.
Documents and paperwork
Drafting, reviewing or checking succession-related documents, declarations and powers of attorney within our standard document scope.
Family and personal-status overlap
Where a succession touches family or personal-status matters, we explain how those files relate to each other before you commit to a course of action.
Disputes between heirs
Assessment of a contested estate and, where instructed, representation before the competent Lebanese authorities — scope and fee by quotation.
Remote handling for clients abroad
Consultations by video or phone, and representation in Lebanon within the scope of a power of attorney signed where you live.
For clients outside Lebanon
You do not need to travel to Beirut to move a succession file forward. We consult remotely in Arabic, French or English, and can act in Lebanon within the scope of a power of attorney signed abroad. The first consultation is paid and remote.
