The coordination gap
Inheritance does not stop at borders.
A family may be in one country, the will in another, and the assets spread across several more. Each professional sees one part. We keep sight of the whole.
International Inheritance Group LLP acts as the coordinating centre of the matter. We establish what exists, what must happen, in which order and who is appropriately qualified to do it—then keep the work moving until the estate reaches its intended destination.
Fewer duplicated instructions
Dependencies managed in order
One consolidated case view
Clear scope and reporting
What we coordinate
The whole matter, not only one document.
Every engagement is scoped around the family, assets and jurisdictions involved. Specialist work is carried out by appropriately qualified independent professionals where required.
Estate and asset mapping
Build a verified inventory of property, accounts, company interests, policies and liabilities, with ownership and documentary gaps clearly identified.
Probate and succession coordination
Coordinate grants, certificates, heirship procedures and local estate administration through regulated lawyers, notaries and other authorised practitioners.
Documents, evidence and legalisation
Organise civil-status records, certified copies, sworn translations, apostilles and evidential chains so that each authority receives the right material.
Asset transfer and completion
Coordinate registrations, closures, sales and beneficiary transfers through the relevant institutions, with a final record of what was completed.
Complex and disputed situations
Stabilise the facts, preserve records and coordinate independent contentious counsel where heirs, documents, capacity, ownership or deadlines are disputed.
When we help
Before and after.
The best time to simplify an international inheritance is before it begins. The second-best time is as soon as a cross-border estate becomes real.

Clarity before activity.
International cases become expensive when every country starts moving independently. We establish the full sequence first, then manage each workstream against it.

About the group
Personal enough to listen. Structured enough to lead.
International Inheritance Group LLP is a UK-based coordination and professional support business focused exclusively on the international dimension of succession. We combine a single accountable case lead with independent, appropriately qualified specialists in each relevant jurisdiction.
We do not hold client money and we do not present coordination as a substitute for regulated legal or tax advice. Where reserved or regulated work is needed, it is delivered by the relevant independent professional under clear engagement terms.
Defined scope
Each phase begins with deliverables, assumptions, dependencies and external costs made visible.
Case ownership
One lead maintains the whole picture, the decision record and the current next step.
Independent expertise
Professionals are chosen for the jurisdiction and issue—not forced into a predetermined network.
Confidential by design
We request only what is needed and structure access around the work each specialist must perform.
Common questions
Straight answers.
International Inheritance Group LLP is a coordination and professional support business and is not presented as an SRA-regulated law firm. Any reserved legal activity, including the preparation of probate papers in England and Wales, is referred to an appropriately authorised independent practitioner.
We assess coverage case by case. The decisive question is not whether a flag appears on a list, but whether we can assemble credible, appropriately qualified professionals for the exact jurisdictions and issues involved. Tell us the countries at the initial review and we will confirm scope before engagement.
Yes. Planning is often where coordination creates the greatest value. We can map the international estate, identify questions for local legal and tax advisers, coordinate the advice and organise a continuity file for the family or future executor.
We prefer fixed fees for a defined diagnostic or phase, followed by staged coordination fees where the route is clear. Independent professional and official costs are shown separately wherever possible. We do not calculate our standard coordination fee as a percentage of the inheritance.
No. International Inheritance Group LLP does not hold client money. Funds and assets should move through the estate's authorised representative, regulated client accounts, banks, notaries or other appropriate institutions.
