Inheritance is the sum of all assets, rights, and debts that a person leaves behind after his or her death. The inheritance passes to the legal heirs and/or persons specified in the will.
Common in inheritances;
• Uncertainties in inheritance
• The emergence of new heirs
• Inability to reach heirs
• Inability to divide an inheritance
• Problems and conflicts of interest between the heirs
constitute the main inheritance problems that remain unresolved.
Inheritance research is a set of studies carried out to determine the scope of the inheritance left behind after the death of a person and who the heirs are. Since the division of the inheritance is the division of the mother and father, this process has spiritual as well as material aspects. As the Cantemir Inheritance Research team, we also try to accompany the psychological processes within the family in the process of resolving your inheritance.
Heritage research;
• The property subject to inheritance and/or the heirs are located in another country
• Inherited assets are not known
• The breakdown of kinship relations
• Inheritance to relatives after the death of the inheritor without children
• Hidden or intimate situations within the family
Such research is carried out by utilizing various sources such as family history, civil registers, land registers, and probate certificates. Inheritance research requires expertise in different fields such as real estate, law, and history. Progressing in a single discipline in this regard may delay the solution of problems and lead to loss of rights.

Cantemir Inheritance Investigations Corp. offers services for investigating family trees in Turkey to solve inheritance problems and manage these processes. It investigates the properties that families do not know about or cannot access. It prepares reports on the past ownership processes and the legal status of these properties. It enables creation of family trees, identification of official family members, and official inclusion of people who are family members but are not registered in the records to the line of succession.
Inheritance investigation requires working together in many different areas:
Together with our solution partners, we are the first company in Turkey to provide services in such different disciplines. Our expert staff carry out investigative processes. These staff members know how the archives in Turkey are organized, what to look for, and where. In addition, since the issue of inheritance means sharing the past in the family, processes such as the possibility of conflict within the family need to be managed carefully and discretely. As Cantemir Inheritance Investigations Corp, we reliably meet all your needs under one roof.
Investigation fees for creating a family tree and establishing contact with people related to a property, title deed, and cadastre vary depending on factors such as the number of people, the number of properties, and the region to be researched. Since we are an Istanbul-based company, Istanbul-based investigative processes are carried out faster. In particular, Ottoman land registry and identification documentation investigations are priced to include translation services of Ottoman-Turkish documents. If we find the property and call you, we do not charge a fee. We make percentage agreements based on the legal status of the inheritance and the value to be created. In proportionate agreements, we determine the percentage accordingly if you will cover the costs. At Cantemir Inheritance Investigations Corp, we cover the expenses and solve your inheritance problems with a percentage calculation at the end of the task.
We request retainer payment for families requesting an investigation report. If we find the property and call you, we do not charge any fee.
You can reach us by e-mail or phone. If you are in Istanbul, we would be pleased to welcome you in our office. Also, we can make out-of-town or international calls online.
We start with a person or a request letter explaining the details of your family's inheritance process. We want documents, information, and hearings from you regarding family properties, if any. Again, we ask for real estate information if you have it; otherwise, we start searching for all kinds of information and documents related to the inheritance sought, such as the address, the region, and the street name.
Ottoman period identification certificates, proof of residence addresses, title deeds, property tax receipts; documents related to title deeds from the Republic of Turkey period; all kinds of documents regarding ownership and family inheritance, such as a certified copy of the identity card obtained from the Civil Registry Office or e-devlet, going back three generations. Additionally, a power of attorney is needed authorizing us for the investigation on your behalf within the land registry and identification registry archives.
We solve all business processes with the power of attorney you provide. We can cover business process expenses according to our contract. We keep you informed with regular reports about your business process.
It will allow you to find your family's properties that you cannot find on your own, to find missing persons who are shareholders in your property, or to clear your doubts about your family's past properties.
The issue of inheritance involves a lot of confidential information, even within the family. That's why we established a business organization that protects the privacy of every family member. Afterwards, we destroy the copies of the documents you give us.
Of course, we would be happy to welcome you at our office.
We conduct research on Turkish, Anatolian Greek, Armenian, and Jewish families who owned property in Turkey during the Ottoman or Republican period through open sources—especially social media. Thanks to our solution partners in Athens, Paris, Frankfurt, London, New York, Los Angeles, and Buenos Aires, we also reach people from a wide data pool.
Cantemir Inheritance Research can help you trace the traces of your past to find your lost or forgotten inheritance and ensure that these rights reach you.
