Working with clients abroad
An initial discussion reviews your matter, the available documents and the steps needed in Serbia. It then considers what a representative may do, which documents are required and whether any steps require your personal attendance.
Inheritance in Serbia from Abroad
Inheritance in Serbia from Abroad
An inheritance in Serbia while you live abroad raises practical questions about representation and documents. An initial discussion can review the notice you received, information about the deceased, the estate and other heirs, whether you live in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria, France, the Netherlands, Denmark or Sweden.
Buying Property in Serbia from Abroad
Buying Property in Serbia from Abroad
Before buying a house, apartment or plot in Serbia from abroad, it is important to check what is being sold, who is registered as owner and whether there are encumbrances or other legal issues. An advertisement, photograph or informal agreement does not replace a review of the documents. Plan the legal review before signing or making a proposed payment.
Power of Attorney for Serbia
A power of attorney issued abroad for use in Serbia should match the intended transaction: probate, a property purchase or sale, a cadastral matter or other representation. A form used by someone else may not be suitable. First identify the actions to be authorised and the person or authority receiving the document in Serbia.
Dividing Property in Serbia
When heirs or other co-owners disagree about a house, land, use or sale, the starting point is to establish ownership and review the documents. Living abroad does not resolve the size of a share or by itself amount to a waiver of rights.

Do I need to travel to Serbia?
This depends on the action and the documents. Some steps may be performed by a representative, while others may require personal attendance. These options are assessed before agreeing the engagement.
