INTERNATIONAL SUCCESSION LAWS – PANAMA

Pardini & Asociados is proud to announce that the law firm has contributed to the Panama chapter of the International Succession Laws book in collaboration with the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP) and Bloomsbury Professional. The article was written by Dr. Juan Francisco Pardini, partner manager of the law firm, and Juan Raul Sevillano, associate attorney.

This book has been produced as a guide for those practitioners who find that their work for private individuals means that they have to consider legal, tax and succession systems of more than one country. Written by leading practitioners from around the world, this publication is an important service for trust practitioners, lawyers, accountants and banks. Practical and accessible, it deals with fixed rights of inheritance; recognition of trusts; treatment of lifetime gifts; recognition of foreign wills; and recognition of foreign taxes.

Each country’s entry contains information on their particular fixed rights of inheritance, formalities and tax issues, as well as issues and matters of succession law pertaining to that particular country.
