Law / Polish inheritance rules with regards to property that was transferred before death [7]
Hello,
I have a hypothetical question regarding Polish inheritance law and pratice.
Obviously this would require consulting a lawyer specialized in estate law however I just wanted to see if anyone can confirm my reasoning here.
Here is the hypothetical scenario:
If a person transfers real estate property ownership to one of their children before their death (legally, as a gift).
Is that gifted land then part of the estate when that person dies ?
It would seems reasonable to inclufe this land in the estate, otherwise the gift would be a way to make some children heirless by gifting things before death.
Would a person need to sue in court to include the land value in the estate ?
Thank you for any replies and sorry if this topic is not allowed.
Best regards,
MrZ
