I have been contacted by a lawyer in Poland on behalf of a client, habitually resident in Poland, who holds both Polish and British citizenship and who wishes to make a will and to choose the Law of England and Wales to govern his succession under Article 22 the EU Succession Regulations. He wishes to “disinherit” his son and grandson and is not able to do this effectively under Polish law.
I understand that the client is wealthy being the CEO of a large well known Polish company. I am advised that if the son is not provided for he will almost certainly contest the provisions of the Will strenuously, he is currently trying to take over his father’s company and is causing damage to the company’s reputation.
I have advised that I would like to obtain Counsel’s advice and I would be grateful if anybody could recommend Counsel who may be able to help.
