  • Florian Aicher, LL.M. (BU), Attorney-at-Law, Certified Executor (DVEV), Certified Mediator: „Since 2012 I have been working exclusively in the field of inheritance law and herein specialise in the planning and structuring of donations and transfers in the lifetime, the drafting and execution of wills, forced heirship and administration of estates. I will enforce and defend hereditary titles for you both in and out of court. Other key topics of my work are the family law with focus on the field of Asset Protection as well as real estate law with special reference to real estate in inheritance. Due to my perennial educational stays in France and the USA with additional international university degrees in addition to my German state examinations I can rely on my broad knowledge and profound experience also in foreign legal systems and upon the related subject-specific foreign language skills. I will represent your interests in Germany and abroad. When required, I can rely on my excellent international connections and assist you in the execution of international estates.
