Questions

No, and we can't represent you. We take the published rules and work out which procedure your situation points to, then put your case together in a file a Greek professional can work from. The legal work itself is done by a licensed lawyer, notary or registered cadastral mediator, not by us.

Charging for the answer would mean selling a legal opinion, and we're not licensed to do that in Greece. Charging for a well-organised file is fine. It's also fair. Working out your track costs us almost nothing, while the file is what saves you three phone calls and a couple of weeks.

No. Professionals pay us a flat monthly fee to be listed for the areas they cover, and nothing per client. Article 10 of the Greek lawyers' Code of Conduct is aimed squarely at fee-sharing with middlemen, and taking a cut would also tempt us to send you to whoever pays us most.

Usually not. Nearly every step, like the acceptance deed, the tax return and the cadastre registration, can be handled by a lawyer in Greece with a power of attorney. You sign it at a notary or Greek consulate where you live, with an apostille and a certified translation. A few cases do need you there in person, and your case file will tell you if yours is one of them.

Not necessarily. What matters most is the date. You can correct the entry until 31 December of the eighth year after the local cadastral office opened, and for offices that were running by the end of 2015 that deadline was 30 November 2024. If it's still open and the family has a title, it can be fixed through an application. If it has passed, or there's no title, article 61 of Law 5326/2026 has offered a mandatory mediation since 16 September 2026 for families who've used the property for twenty years. Run the check and it'll tell you which situation you're in.

They're ranges based on published fee scales and what professionals usually charge. Think of them as a ballpark, not a quote. Notary fees are a percentage, so they're fairly predictable. Lawyers' fees can differ by several thousand euros between Athens and a small island, and court cases are the hardest to predict. The inheritance tax is worked out properly from the brackets, but it uses the objective value you gave us and assumes equal shares. If either of those is off, the tax will be too.

We do, and so does the one professional we match you with if you ask for that. Nobody else. We don't sell or pass on contact details. Your answers include details about someone who has died, and sometimes about co-heirs who've never used this site. That's why we delete everything after twenty-four months, and you can delete it yourself any time from the privacy page.

It works like a shared document link. You'll probably want to send it to a lawyer, maybe to a brother or sister in another country, and making everyone sign up first wouldn't help anyone. The link contains 192 bits of randomness, so nobody is going to guess it. Share it carefully, like you would a document, and if you want it gone, the privacy page deletes it straight away.

Tell us and we'll refund the file. The check follows rules, and real life throws up things the rules didn't expect, like a will nobody mentioned, a boundary that moved, or an office that opened in a different year than the website says. That's also why every paid file ends with questions for the professional, not instructions.

No. Kliros only covers Greek inheritance and Greek cadastre law. The tracks, deadlines, tax brackets and mediation procedure are all specific to Greece, and a general version wouldn't be much use to anyone.
