What happens to someone’s property when they die according to Israeli law ? Does it matter if they made a will or not ?
By: דיאנה שאלתיאל•Published on: 03 May, 2022If the deceased left a will and this is valid and an order is given to enforce it the estate will be distributed according to it unless there are objections, in which case the issue will be opened up . If there is no will or the will is declared invalid the property a person leaves when they die (their estate) will be divided up according to the principles set down in the 1965 Inheritance Law.
