Inheritance by will is one of the primary methods of transferring property to an individual after the death of the testator. This type of inheritance is based on the will of the deceased, as expressed in their testament. Let's examine in more detail the rules, principles, and conditions of inheritance by will.
Concept of inheritance by will. Inheritance by will is the transfer of the deceased's property to an individual (heir) specified in their will. A will can be conditional (depending on the fulfillment of certain conditions) or unconditional (property is transferred without any restrictions).
Types of inheritance by will. There are two main types of inheritance by will: testamentary disposition and testamentary disclaimer. In the former case, the deceased determines to whom and which parts of their property are transferred. In the latter case, the deceased renounces the right to dispose of their property, leaving this right to legal heirs.
Principles of inheritance by will. The main principles of inheritance by will include freedom of will, the inalienability of the heir's right, and compliance with legal requirements regarding the form and content of the will. These principles ensure the realization of the deceased's will and protect the rights of legal heirs.
Conditions of inheritance by will. For a will to be recognized as valid, it must meet certain conditions, including the correct form, proper registration, and the exclusion of any signs of coercion or deception.
Procedure for inheritance by will. The procedure for inheritance by will includes a series of steps, including the recognition of the will by the court, the distribution of property among the heirs, registration of property rights, and the execution of the deceased's will.
Entry into inheritance by will. An individual specified in the will as an heir may enter into inheritance by accepting the will. Acceptance of inheritance can be done in writing or by directly performing actions indicating the intention to accept the inheritance.
What is inheritance by law. Inheritance by law is inheritance that arises automatically according to the law in cases where there is no will or it is invalid. It is based on legislative requirements regarding inheritance in the absence of a will.
Inheritance by law and by will are two different ways of transferring the deceased's property. Inheritance by law occurs when there is no will or it is invalid.

Inheritance by law is inheritance that arises automatically according to the law in cases where there is no will or it is invalid.
