Do you need a lawyer for inheritance?

Legal analysis: you don't need to hire a lawyer if you have the ability. The law won't force you to ask. However, legal issues are very professional, and it is difficult for non-professionals to really exercise their rights. If you want to defend your rights with high quality, you'd better find a lawyer. If the evidence is complete, the facts of the case are clear, and the other party has not hired a lawyer, it is unnecessary to hire a lawyer. In court, as long as you show the evidence to the judge, the judge will accept it.

Legal basis: In case of any of the following circumstances in Article 154 of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC), the relevant part of the estate shall be handled according to legal inheritance: 1. The testator abandons inheritance or the legatee abandons legacy; 2. The testator loses the right of inheritance or the legatee loses the right of bequest; 3. The testator or legatee dies or terminates before the testator; 4. Legacy involved in the invalid part of the will; 5. Legacy that has not been dealt with by will.
