What is an inheritance division case in Poland?

A case of inheritance division in Poland is initiated upon request, but after the final conclusion of the procedure of declaration of acquisition of the inheritance in Poland. It should be borne in mind that the Polish court, in the case of a declaration of inheritance, only indicates by its decision who has acquired the inheritance and in what shares.

The division (partition) of the inheritance before the Polish court is not necessarily a long procedure either. As in any other case, it depends on the position of the participants in the proceedings or their ability to reach an amicable settlement of the proceedings. A case concerning the division of an inheritance becomes longer when an expert has to be appointed to estimate the value of a specific real estate or movable property.
