Unlike the past, when people divided inherited assets through consultations between parties, people are now depending on court decisions for the division of inherited assets more than ever. There has also been a gradual increase in the frequency and size of the cases, requesting legal portion of heir. Inherited properties are divided not only considering the inherited property at the time of death of the heir, but also taking into account of the disposition inter vivos. Complicated and strict principles of inheritance laws require assistance of legal experts. On the other hand, it is best to be prepared with pre-emptive legal consultation so that disputes do not arise between family members.
