Common scenario
My Swedish Parent Died and I Live in the U.S.
A child or close family member lives in the United States while the deceased parent, documents, or assets are connected to Sweden.
The first conversation is free for up to 30 minutes and available by phone, video, or in person. No documents are required before the call. Consultations are subject to an initial matter and conflict review. Contacting the firm does not create a lawyer-client relationship.
Typical questions
Issues to clarify before choosing the next step.
- Who are the estate parties under Swedish law?
- Is there a will, spouse, common children, or children from another relationship?
- What Swedish assets, banks, or property must be administered?
- Can the matter be handled remotely with carefully prepared documents?
This is a scenario guide, not a description of a particular client result. The correct route depends on the actual documents, estate parties, assets, banks, and jurisdictions.
First-call preparation

Documents
What wills, inventories, powers of attorney, bank letters, or court documents exist?
Assets
What Swedish banks, property, accounts, or other assets are part of the matter?
A Swedish estate with a U.S. connection?
