#1 Post by BishyB »

Now that the French have ruled that English law wills will be exempt from France's forced heirship rules we are looking for recommendations for a Notaire to draw up our French wills - english speaking would be helpful.  Also as we have assets in UK do we also need english wills or can they be included in a French will? Thank you

It might help if you said whereabouts you are.

I pretty sure we made a French will with an English translation which suits both countries.
The wills are registered with the FCDDV .
Just looked it up;
Le FCDDV, aussi appelé fichier des testaments, centralise pour toute la France des informations sur les testaments reçus par les notaires.
