Erbrecht

The 23rd edition incorporates new laws and their impact on the law of succession, in particular the law for the reform of the law on guardianship and custodianship and the law for the modernization of partnership law. Since the previous edition was published, rulings of the German Federal Court of Justice and the higher regional courts have made significant contributions to the further development of the law of succession.
