A will that fails to meet Israeli legal requirements can be partially or entirely invalidated — leaving your family to face a lengthy court battle instead of a clear inheritance. Attorney Eli Shimony drafts, validates, and defends Israeli wills for clients worldwide. Everything handled in English, without traveling to Israel.
Tell us about your situation — we'll respond within 24 hours.
Whether you are writing a will, validating one after a loved one passed, or facing a dispute — we cover every aspect of Israeli will law.
Israeli law recognizes four types of will: witnessed, handwritten, before an authority, and oral. Each has specific requirements — and one mistake can void the entire document. We draft your will so it holds up in any Israeli court, now and in the future.
When someone passes away with an Israeli will, the will must be submitted to the Inheritance Registrar to receive a Probate Order. We handle the full filing — Hebrew documents, heir notifications, objection hearings — until the order is granted and assets can be distributed.
A will written abroad can govern Israeli assets — provided it meets Israeli legal standards and is properly translated. If a will is being contested, we defend your rights. If you believe a will is invalid or was signed under duress, we challenge it in court.
A poorly drafted Israeli will doesn't just create uncertainty — it invites disputes, delays, and court proceedings that can consume years and a significant portion of the estate. Attorney Eli Shimony has spent 15 years ensuring Israeli wills say exactly what they need to say, and that they stand up when it matters most.
We review your existing will for legal vulnerabilities — and draft new wills that are clear, compliant with Israeli Succession Law, and impossible to challenge on technical grounds.
Court filings, Inheritance Registrar submissions, Hebrew translations, and heir notifications are all managed on your behalf. Most US and UK clients never need to travel to Israel at any stage.
No account managers, no ticketing systems. You work directly with Attorney Shimony — in English, by phone, email, or WhatsApp — with clear updates throughout the entire process.
