Married couples can establish a Berlin testament, a special form of joint will together. Therein it is often the case that the spouse who survives the other may not change or may only reduce the testament.Such clauses should be taken up however only after consultation with the Civil Law Notary as they may lead to profound result if incidents, unforeseen to the spouses, incur. A Berlin testament can also be established before a Civil Law Notary. This will then be deposited with the court of probate. If the Berliner Testament is privatly established in written form then the testators keep it insofar as they do not deposit it with a Civil Law Notary for safekeeping. In particuarly with the requirements of forced shares recipients of Hartz IV can have a problem with the Berliner Testament: Situation 1: If Bill dies Mary will inherit. John will receive a forced share which, due to the 2006 law, will pass to the Arbeitsagentur [agency for work]. Therefore the Berliner Testament can have dire consequences for a Hartz IV recipient. In order to avoid any complications it is therefore recommended to consult a Civil Law Notary. Situation With regards to inheritance tax that has the effect that tax, in two relatively trivial sums can be payable. With the assertion of the forced share tax liability arises.
