How do I register my rights of property once inherited in Puerto Rico?

Once you inherit real estate property in Puerto Rico, you need to register your rights in the Puerto Rico Property Registry. To do so, you have to comply with certain legal formalities. If you inherited via a will, and the will was executed outside of Puerto Rico, if the executed will is not contrary to Puerto Rico law, you need to validate the same. For this, Puerto Rico Lawyers will file in court a legal action called an Exequator. Puerto Lawyers can take care of this process with assertiveness and ease. Contact Puerto Rico Lawyers for more information on how you can help you.

If no will exists, you need to determine your rights to real estate and other property located in Puerto Rico. When there is no Will, the Puerto Rico Inheritance Laws provide the rules for inheritance for the property located in Puerto Rico. If you are the heir and have legally established your right to inherit in accordance with the laws of Puerto Rico, you need to secure a Puerto Rico Inheritance Tax document from the Puerto Rico Treasury Department before you can complete the process of registering your rights to real estate and other assets located in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico Lawyers can assist in all of this process. Contact Puerto Rico Lawyers for an initial consultation.
