Do I Need to Hire the Same Attorney Who Helped Draft the Will?
If you’ve been given the responsibility of managing an estate in Egypt or Switzerland—or you’re concerned about the future of your inheritance—you might wonder whether you must hire the same lawyer who drafted your loved one’s will.
The short answer is no. You are not legally required to continue with the same attorney during the inheritance process.
Choosing the Right Inheritance Lawyer in Egypt and Switzerland
Just because a lawyer helped draft the will doesn’t necessarily mean they’re the best person to handle the inheritance itself. Estate matters—especially those involving multiple countries—can be complex.
A qualified inheritance lawyer should not only understand general estate law but also have in-depth knowledge of the specific legal systems in Egypt and Switzerland. At Alzayat, our legal team specializes in handling cross-border inheritance matters. This ensures the estate is managed properly and assets are distributed according to applicable laws.

Our team has extensive experience representing clients in inheritance-related legal matters involving both Egypt and Switzerland. From reviewing and submitting legal documents to resolving disputes over the will, we handle every step with professionalism and care.
We understand that inheritance cases are often complex, particularly when assets are located in different jurisdictions. Our goal is to simplify the process and ensure the estate moves smoothly through legal procedures in both countries.
If the estate contains high-value assets or is subject to probate disputes, our attorneys are prepared to protect your rights. Whether you need help managing documentation, dealing with creditors, or preserving your assets, Alzayat is equipped to assist at every stage.
How to Choose a Lawyer for Your Inheritance Case
It’s important to understand that not every lawyer who drafts a will is an expert in inheritance law. This is even more important when your case involves cross-border legal systems.
You should evaluate a lawyer’s experience before hiring them. The attorney you choose should understand not only inheritance law in general but also the specific issues related to property and estate rights across different countries.
At Alzayat, we have built a strong reputation for handling cross-border inheritance matters successfully, especially in Egypt and Switzerland. We offer consultations so you can understand how we can assist in your specific case.
