Claim German Inheritance Without Leaving the U.S.

If you’ve inherited property, money, or other assets in Germany but live in the United States, the idea of managing it all from abroad can seem daunting. The good news is: you do not need to travel to Germany to secure your inheritance. With the right legal representation, the entire process, from court filings to asset transfers, can be handled remotely and legally, ensuring your rights are fully protected without stepping on a plane.
The German American Law Center PLC, located in Michigan, works in close collaboration with its partner office, Rechtsanwaltskanzlei PECHER in Radebeul, Germany, to provide cross-border probate services. This transatlantic partnership allows U.S.-based heirs to manage German estates efficiently. The firms coordinate all communications with German probate courts, banks, land registries, and notaries, so clients can complete the inheritance process without ever needing to travel overseas.
One of the first steps in securing assets is obtaining a Certificate of Inheritance (Erbschein), which is required to access German bank accounts, sell or transfer real estate, and handle other official transactions. Attorney Mandy Pecher, Esq., LLM., MBA, a dual-licensed attorney in both the U.S. and Germany, assists clients by preparing all necessary affidavits, guiding notarizations in the U.S., and submitting documents directly to German authorities on your behalf.
Many estates involve more than just court paperwork. There may be real estate to liquidate, business interests to assess, or inheritance taxes to navigate. Through her offices on both continents, Attorney Pecher works with local professionals including tax advisors and realtors to manage every aspect of the estate. Her bilingual and bicultural legal background ensures nothing is lost in translation, legally, linguistically, or financially.
