Family and Succession

The Polibio & Lago Office has specialized and trained professionals to solve demands in a way that always values the well-being and respect for the privacy of those involved.

The practice of Family and Succession Law involves both judicial and extrajudicial spheres, in the most diverse relationships within families, with the aim of achieving consensual solutions, aiming at the prevention and resolution of family conflicts, with the concern of minimizing emotional wear and tear and safeguarding the rights that arise.

In addition to Family Law, P&L serves its clients in the area of Succession Law, in the event of the death of a relative or even a third party, when there is a need to identify, guide and take care of the inherited or potentially inherited assets of our clients. We have also provided preventive guidance through succession planning and family succession.
