From our professional experience and taking into consideration all the changes in law that have transpired in recent years, the process of acceptance of inheritance in Greece has become complicated, time consuming and expensive.   Without the collaboration from all parties involved and specifically from the beneficiaries themselves, both the costs and time of execution will be heavily increased.  At times, without the consent of all the beneficiaries named in the will or estate, the entire procedure of acceptance of inheritance can be jeopardized or even fail.  Beneficiaries can individually proceed in the acceptance of their individual share, but they will be unable to divide it or further exploit it with having to resort to court / legal procedures.
