Probate (inventário) in São Paulo: how to open it, how much it costs and how long it takes?
Probate in São Paulo: the 60-day deadline, the ITCMD penalty, the judicial and extrajudicial routes, costs and documents. See how to open it and avoid overpaying.
Probate (inventário) is the procedure that ascertains the assets of the deceased, pays the ITCMD and transfers the inheritance to the heirs. In São Paulo, it must be requested within 60 days of death, on pain of a penalty of 10% to 20% of the tax (State Law 10.705/2000). It can be done through the judicial or the extrajudicial route (at a notary's office, faster and cheaper), and requires a lawyer in both.
Few families are prepared for the question that arrives together with grief: and now, what do we do with the house, the car, the bank account, the company shares? Amid the pain and the paperwork, it is common to put it off — and that is exactly when the problem starts to grow.
While probate is not carried out, the inheritance stays locked. The deceased's bank account is blocked. The property cannot be sold or rented with legal certainty. The interest in the company is left in limbo. And, in São Paulo, there is a clock ticking: the inheritance tax has a deadline, and delay turns into a penalty. The cost of inaction here is direct — a penalty that grows, assets that deteriorate, opportunities lost and, not rarely, disputes among heirs that could have been avoided.
In this guide, you will understand what probate is, what the deadline is in São Paulo and what happens if you are late, the difference between the judicial and the extrajudicial route (and when each applies), how probate works with a will, with real estate and with a company, how much it costs, which documents are required and how long everything takes to resolve. At the end, an example with numbers, the most common mistakes and a checklist.
What is probate and why is it mandatory?
Probate (inventário) is the procedure — judicial or extrajudicial — through which the assets, rights and debts left by the deceased (the estate) are identified, the tax due (the ITCMD) is calculated and paid, and the transfer of the estate to the heirs is formalized (the division of the estate).
By law, the inheritance is transmitted to the heirs at the instant of death (art. 1.784 of the Brazilian Civil Code — the so-called saisine principle). But this transmission is, at first, merely theoretical: in practice, nothing can be transferred, sold or regularized until probate is completed. It is probate that states, with legal effect, who ended up with what. That is why probate is mandatory whenever there are assets to divide (CPC, arts. 610 and following), even when the heirs are in agreement.
The purpose of this is simple to explain: without probate, the inheritance exists on paper, but not in real life. The house remains in the name of the deceased; the bank does not release the balance; the registry does not record the sale.
Who inherits? The order of heirs and the spouse's share
Before dividing the estate, you must know who the heirs are. Brazilian law sets an order of hereditary succession (art. 1.829 of the Brazilian Civil Code): first, the descendants (children, grandchildren), concurrently with the spouse; in their absence, the ascendants (parents, grandparents), also concurrently with the spouse; then the spouse alone; and, finally, the collateral relatives up to the fourth degree (siblings, uncles and aunts, nephews and nieces).
The surviving spouse's share is one of the points that most often raise doubts — and it depends on the marital property regime. Under partial community of property (the most common), the spouse is entitled to the half-share (meação) over the marital assets and may also concur in the inheritance as to the deceased's separate assets. Under other regimes, the concurrence changes. That is why separating what is the half-share (meação) (the half that already belonged to the spouse) from what is inheritance is essential — not least because the ITCMD falls only on the inheritance.
Since 2017, the partner in a stable union inherits on the same terms as a spouse: the Federal Supreme Court (STF) declared unconstitutional the rule that gave them inferior treatment (STF, Theme 809, RE 878.694), applying to them the same order of art. 1.829. In practice, the surviving partner is also an heir — which requires proving the stable union in the probate.
There are also the forced heirs (descendants, ascendants and spouse), who are entitled to a minimum portion of the inheritance, the forced share (legítima), corresponding to 50% of the estate (arts. 1.845 and 1.846 of the Brazilian Civil Code). This is why, even with a will, no one can freely dispose of more than half of the assets if there are forced heirs. The purpose of this is simple: the law protects the closest family, ensuring it is not left out.
What is the deadline to open probate in São Paulo — and what happens if you are late?
In São Paulo, there are two deadlines that are often confused, and the one that hits your pocket is the second:
Procedural deadline (federal): probate must be initiated within 2 months from death and completed within the following 12 months, with the judge able to extend it (art. 611 of the CPC). This deadline organizes the proceeding but does not, in itself, generate a direct penalty.
Tax deadline (São Paulo): probate must be requested within 60 days of the opening of the succession. If this is missed, the ITCMD is calculated with a 10% penalty; if the delay exceeds 180 days, the penalty rises to 20% (State Law 10.705/2000, art. 21, I). This is the deadline that turns into money.
Note a point few people know that can save the penalty: the TJSP holds that, in extrajudicial probate, the 60-day deadline does not run from death, but from the execution of the deed appointing the estate administrator (Provimento CGJ 55/2016), and it has set aside the penalty when that deed is executed within the 60 days. The São Paulo Treasury, however, usually charges the penalty counting from the date of death. Translated for the client: when in doubt, declare and pay the ITCMD within 60 days — that way you stay out of this dispute. If the penalty is charged improperly, there is a path to challenge it.
The cost of inaction is cumulative: in addition to the 10% or 20% penalty on the tax, interest and monetary adjustment apply, and the assets remain frozen the whole time.
Judicial or extrajudicial probate: which fits your case?
There are two routes to carry out probate, and the choice greatly changes the time and the cost. Extrajudicial probate is done at a notary's office, by public deed, and applies when the heirs are legally capable and in agreement. Judicial probate runs in court and is the path when there is a conflict among the heirs — and, traditionally, also when there was a will or a minor or legally incapable heir (but this has changed, as we will see).
Three things hold for both routes. First: a lawyer is mandatory in both (Law 11.441/2007; CPC, art. 610, paragraph 2) — at the notary's office, the lawyer assists the heirs and signs the deed. Second: the extrajudicial deed does not need judicial confirmation and already serves as title to register real estate and transfer vehicles. Third: in the extrajudicial route, the heirs may choose any notary's office, since the territorial jurisdiction rules of judicial proceedings do not apply.
The major recent development: CNJ Resolution 571/2024 broadened the scope of the extrajudicial route. Today it is possible to carry out probate at a notary's office even with a will and even with minor or legally incapable heirs — in the latter case, with a favorable opinion from the Public Prosecutor's Office. Until this resolution, these two cases had to go to court.
| Criterion | Judicial | Extrajudicial |
| When it applies | Conflict among heirs (or the parties' choice) | Heirs legally capable and in agreement — today allows a will and incapable heirs, with the Public Prosecutor (CNJ Res. 571/2024) |
| Where | Family and Succession Courts (TJSP) | Any notary's office |
| Conclusion | Court decision (deed of division, formal de partilha) | Public deed, without confirmation |
| Main cost | Court fee of 1.5% of the gross estate (Law 17.785/2023) | Notary fees (graduated schedule), generally lower |
| Lawyer | Mandatory | Mandatory |
| Typical time | Months to years | Weeks to a few months |
It is worth remembering that, even in the judicial route, there are faster paths: the summary arrolamento (when the heirs are legally capable and in agreement, CPC art. 659) and the ordinary arrolamento (for estates of up to 1,000 minimum wages), both less bureaucratic than traditional probate.
Who looks after the assets during probate? The role of the estate administrator
Once probate is opened, someone must administer the estate until the division: this is the estate administrator (inventariante). They represent the estate, pay the bills, render accounts in court and perform the acts needed to preserve the assets (CPC, arts. 617 to 619). As a rule, the role falls to the spouse or partner who lived with the deceased, or to the heir who is in possession of the assets — but it may be another heir or, in some cases, a court-appointed administrator (inventariante dativo).
Choosing a diligent estate administrator makes a practical difference: it is they who keep the property in order, prevent debts from accumulating and move the proceeding forward. An absent administrator, or one in conflict with the others, is one of the most common causes of probates that drag on for years.
Probate with a will: can it be done at a notary's office?
Today, yes — and this is one of the most significant changes of recent years. Since CNJ Resolution 571/2024, it is possible to carry out extrajudicial probate even when the deceased left a will, provided the will has already been opened and judicially registered and that all heirs are legally capable and in agreement with the division of the estate.
This opening did not come out of nowhere: the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) already admitted the possibility (REsp 1.808.767/RJ, 4th Panel, 2019) and, in São Paulo, Provimento CGJ 37/2016 already allowed the extrajudicial route when there was authorization from the court handling the will. Resolution 571/2024 consolidated this understanding nationwide.
One step is mandatory in any probate: checking for the existence of a will at CENSEC, through the Central Registry of Wills Online (RCTO). The certificate is required in both the judicial and the extrajudicial route (Provimento CNJ 56/2016). If there is a dispute over the will or over the division of the estate, the path reverts to the judicial route.
Probate with real estate: what changes?
When there is real estate in the inheritance — the most common case in São Paulo — three points deserve attention. First, the property is appraised (as a rule, at the reference assessed value or market value), and the ITCMD falls on that value. Second, the division of the estate must be registered at the competent Real Estate Registry Office: it is the registration of the deed of division (judicial route) or of the deed (extrajudicial route) that actually transfers ownership to the heirs' names. Without that registration, the property remains in the name of the deceased and cannot be sold.
Third, the property must be regularized: up-to-date property record (matrícula), construction recorded, IPTU paid. Pending issues (an unrecorded built area, an outdated property record) stall the probate and must be resolved beforehand or in parallel. An important observation applies here: on transfer by inheritance the ITCMD (state tax on transfers causa mortis) applies, not the ITBI, which is the municipal tax on transfers between living persons.
Probate with a company: what happens to the shares and the management?
If the deceased was a partner in a company, the quotas or shares form part of the estate and are also included in the probate and taxed by the ITCMD, on the value of the interest. What happens to the company, however, depends on the articles of association: they may provide for the continuity of the company with the heirs, the determination of the withdrawing party's payout (payment of the quota's value to the heir, without the heir becoming a partner), or the heirs' entry into the company's membership.
There is a practical risk that often catches families by surprise: if the deceased was a manager, the company's management may be paralyzed while probate runs — accounts to operate, contracts to sign, decisions to make. This is why well-drafted management and succession clauses in the articles of association, and planning instruments such as the family holding company, make such a difference: they organize the transition before it becomes a problem. Valuing the quotas (including goodwill, the intangible value of the business) is a sensitive point and usually requires a technical valuation report.
In practice, three scenarios are common: the articles of association provide for continuity and the heirs take over the deceased's position; the articles require determining the payout and the company pays the heirs the value of the quota; or the articles are silent, and the solution ends up depending on negotiation — or on a court dispute. The clearer the provision in the articles, the lower the risk that the company and the family become hostage to the probate.
ITCMD: how the inheritance tax is calculated in São Paulo
The ITCMD (Tax on Transfers Causa Mortis and Gifts) is the state tax that falls on inheritances and on gifts. In probate, it is the main cost and must be paid before the assets pass into the heirs' names. In São Paulo, the rate is 4% of the value of the transferred assets (State Law 10.705/2000, art. 16).
The tax base is the value of the assets on the date of death, and each type of asset is appraised in its own way: real estate, as a rule, by the reference assessed value (or market value); vehicles, by the FIPE table; accounts and investments, by the balance; company quotas, by the value of the interest, often with a valuation report. It is worth repeating the point that saves the most tax: the spouse's half-share (meação) is not taxed — the ITCMD falls only on what is, in fact, inheritance.
The tax can be paid in up to 12 installments in São Paulo, and there are exemptions for lower-value transfers (art. 6 of Law 10.705/2000) — for example, for the sole low-value residential property in which the family lives. The exemption thresholds are set in UFESP and updated every year, so it is worth confirming the bracket in force before assuming there is (or is not) tax to pay.
An update alert, important for those who are planning: the flat 4% rate may change. Constitutional Amendment 132/2023 (the tax reform) and Complementary Law 227/2026 made progressivity mandatory for the ITCMD throughout the country, with rates that may reach 8% depending on the value of the inheritance. In São Paulo, however, this progressivity still depends on a state law — there were two bills before the Legislative Assembly (PL 7/2024 and PL 409/2025), not yet passed. And, under the principle of tax anteriority, a law published in 2026 would only take effect from 2027. In other words: for now, the 4% rate applies — but it is a topic to follow closely.
How much does probate cost in São Paulo?
Beyond the ITCMD, which we saw above, probate has other costs. See the full breakdown of the components:
| Component | What it is / how much |
| ITCMD | 4% of the value of the transferred assets in São Paulo (Law 10.705/2000, art. 16). It falls only on the inheritance, not on the spouse's half-share (meação). It can be paid in up to 12 installments. |
| Court costs | In the judicial route: a court fee of 1.5% of the gross estate (Law 11.608/2003, art. 4, with the increase from 1% to 1.5% by Law 17.785/2023), paid before confirmation of the division of the estate. |
| Notary fees | In the extrajudicial route: an annual graduated schedule according to the gross estate; as a rule, much lower than court costs. |
| Lawyer's fees | Freely agreed between client and lawyer; the OAB/SP fee schedule serves as a reference, not as a legally mandatory ceiling or floor. |
| Certificates and documents | Certificates for property, death, marriage, CENSEC and others: smaller costs, but they add up. |
Two points truly save money. The first is the half-share (meação): when there is a surviving spouse or partner married under community of property, half of the marital assets already belongs to them (the half-share) and is not inheritance — therefore, the ITCMD does not fall on that half. Confusing the half-share with inheritance means paying too much tax. The second is the choice of route: since the court fee rose to 1.5% in 2023, extrajudicial probate became even more advantageous when it is possible. For high-value estates, the difference between court costs and notary fees can amount to hundreds of thousands of reais.
For those who cannot afford the costs, there is free legal aid (gratuidade da justiça) and assistance from the Public Defender's Office (CPC, art. 98) — in such cases, only the ITCMD is paid, when due. And there are exemptions provided for in Law 10.705/2000 (art. 6) for lower-value transfers — for example, for the low-value residential property in which the family lives — whose thresholds are set in UFESP and updated every year; it is worth confirming the bracket in force.
Which documents are required for probate?
The biggest cause of delay in probate is not the law — it is incomplete documentation. It is worth gathering everything before starting. In general terms:
Of the deceased: death certificate, ID and CPF, up-to-date marriage certificate (or birth certificate, if single), proof of address and the certificate confirming the absence of a will (CENSEC/RCTO).
Of the heirs and the spouse: personal documents, birth or marriage certificates, proofs of address and, if any, the prenuptial agreement.
Of the assets: real estate (up-to-date property record (matrícula), IPTU bill and assessed value); vehicles (CRLV and FIPE value); accounts and investments (statements on the date of death); quotas or shares (articles of association and balance sheet); and other assets.
Clearance certificates: for debts and taxes of the deceased and of the assets, as applicable.
A practical tip: many of these certificates have a validity period (as a rule, 30 to 90 days) and some take days to be issued. Requesting everything right at the start, in parallel, prevents the process from stalling while waiting for a document — and this is exactly where an organized lawyer saves weeks.
How long does probate take in São Paulo?
There is no single timeframe, but it can be estimated by route. Extrajudicial probate is usually completed in a few weeks to a few months once the documentation has been gathered. Consensual judicial probate (arrolamento) usually takes 6 to 18 months. Contested probate, with a dispute among heirs, can take years.
What most influences the timeframe, in practice:
Documentation: up-to-date certificates and property records in hand speed everything up; pending issues stall progress.
Number of and relationship among the heirs: the more heirs and the greater the disagreement, the slower the process.
Complexity of the estate: real estate in other states, an interest in a company or a will require additional steps.
The route chosen: the notary's office is faster than the courts whenever the case allows.
What else may come up in probate: debts, supplementary division, assignment and assets outside São Paulo
Some points fall outside the basic script and tend to arise in practice:
Estate debts. The deceased's debts are paid out of the inheritance assets before the division. The heirs are not liable with their own assets — they are liable only up to the limit of what they received (arts. 1.792 and 1.997 of the Brazilian Civil Code). That is why it is important to identify the liabilities too, not just the assets.
Supplementary division (sobrepartilha). If an asset is discovered after probate has closed (a forgotten account, a plot of land in another city), a supplementary division is carried out for that asset alone (art. 669 of the CPC), without redoing the entire process.
Assignment of hereditary rights. An heir may assign (sell or gift) their share of the inheritance to another person, by public deed, before the division (art. 1.793 of the Brazilian Civil Code) — but the other co-heirs have a right of first refusal in the acquisition.
Assets in other states or abroad. Probate runs, as a rule, in the deceased's domicile, and jurisdiction for the ITCMD is defined by the Constitution (art. 155). Real estate in another state follows that state's ITCMD rules; and assets abroad gained a clear legal basis for taxation with LC 227/2026.
Negative probate. When the deceased left no assets to divide, a negative probate is carried out — a procedure that serves, for example, to prove the absence of an estate before creditors or to formally close the succession.
Practical example: the probate of Dona Helena's family
Dona Helena, a widow, passed away in São Paulo leaving two adult children on good terms. The estate: an apartment in Vila Mariana valued at R$ 800 mil, a car worth R$ 60 mil and R$ 140 mil in investments — a gross estate of R$ 1 milhão. There is no will.
Route: since the children are legally capable, in agreement and there is no will, extrajudicial probate applies, at a notary's office, without needing to go to court.
ITCMD: 4% of R$ 1 milhão = R$ 40 mil, which can be paid in 12 installments (about R$ 3,3 mil per month). Since Dona Helena was a widow, the entire estate is inheritance — there is no half-share (meação) to deduct.
Cost of the route: in the judicial route, the court fee of 1.5% of R$ 1 milhão would be R$ 15 mil; in the extrajudicial route, you pay the notary fees for the corresponding bracket, as a rule in the order of a few thousand reais — a significant saving.
Deadline: the children declare and pay the ITCMD within 60 days and avoid the 10% penalty. With the documentation ready, the deed is completed in a few weeks.
Registration: the deed is taken to the Vila Mariana Real Estate Registry Office, and the apartment passes into the children's names — and they can now sell or rent it.
The result: a regularized inheritance, with no penalty, no litigation and with the estate unlocked. Had the children quarreled, or had there been a minor without agreement, the path would have been the courts — more time and costs of 1.5%.
The most common (and costly) mistakes
Letting the 60 days lapse and incurring the 10% penalty on the ITCMD (or 20% beyond 180 days).
Thinking there is no rush: a blocked account, a property that cannot be sold and a frozen estate become costly over time.
Going to court when the notary's office would have done — a slower path and, today, a more expensive one (costs of 1.5%).
Undervaluing assets to pay less ITCMD: risk of a tax assessment and a penalty of one times the tax value (Law 10.705/2000, art. 21).
Forgetting to check for a will at CENSEC before starting probate.
Failing to register the deed of division or the deed at the Real Estate Registry Office — without this, the inheritance is not completed.
Confusing the half-share (meação) with inheritance and paying ITCMD on the half that already belonged to the spouse.
Ignoring the estate debts: they follow the estate and must be paid up to the limit of the inheritance.
Checklist: what to organize before and during probate
Identify all the assets, rights and debts of the deceased (the estate).
Request the certificate confirming the absence of a will (CENSEC/RCTO).
Gather the documents of the deceased, the heirs and the assets.
Check whether the extrajudicial route applies (legally capable and in agreement) or the judicial one.
Calculate the ITCMD and declare/pay it within 60 days (avoids the penalty); consider installment payment.
Engage a lawyer (mandatory in both routes).
Complete the division of the estate and register it at the Real Estate Registry Office and with the other authorities.
How to avoid a costly, drawn-out probate: the role of estate planning
The best probate is the one that arrives already organized. Those who plan during their lifetime reduce tax, time and conflict — and spare the family from having to make difficult decisions at the worst moment. Some tools:
Will. It allows you to organize the allocation of the disposable portion of the estate (up to 50%, respecting the forced share of the forced heirs) and to avoid disputes. Well-drafted, it speeds up probate; poorly drafted, it can be invalidated.
Lifetime gift (often with a reserved usufruct). It anticipates the transfer of assets to the heirs, with less litigation — the ITCMD is paid on the gift, but probate of that asset is avoided.
Family holding company. Structuring the estate in a family company can ease the succession, organize the management and, in certain cases, reduce costs — a topic that deserves individualized analysis.
Life insurance. The capital of a life insurance policy does not form part of the inheritance and goes directly to the beneficiary (art. 794 of the Brazilian Civil Code), without entering probate — a way to ensure immediate liquidity for the family.
The purpose of planning is simple to explain: to decide calmly, today, what the family would have to decide in mourning, tomorrow. And, given the possible rise of the ITCMD in São Paulo, organizing the succession while the rate is still 4% can make a difference.
Frequently asked questions about probate in São Paulo
How much does probate cost in São Paulo?
The largest cost is usually the ITCMD, at 4% of the value of the transferred assets in São Paulo (State Law 10.705/2000, art. 16), which falls only on the inheritance and not on the spouse's half-share (meação). To this are added the court costs (1.5% of the gross estate in the judicial route) or the notary fees (in the extrajudicial route, generally lower), the lawyer's fees and the certificates.
How long does probate take?
It depends on the route and the complexity. Extrajudicial probate is usually completed within a few weeks to a few months once the documentation has been gathered. Consensual judicial probate (arrolamento) usually takes 6 to 18 months. Contested probate, with disputes between heirs, can take years. Organizing the documents in advance speeds up any of them.
Can I sell a property without completing probate?
No. Until the division of the estate is completed and registered, the property remains in the name of the estate and cannot be freely sold. In specific cases, it is possible to sell an asset during the course of probate with court authorization (alvará), but the rule is to complete probate and register the deed of division or the deed at the Real Estate Registry Office.
Who pays the ITCMD in probate?
The ITCMD is paid by the heirs, each on their own share (the portion they receive), normally with funds from the estate itself. The tax falls only on the inheritance: the surviving spouse's half-share (meação) (half of the marital assets) is not taxed, because it already belonged to them. In São Paulo the ITCMD can be paid in up to 12 installments.
Can probate be done without a lawyer?
No. A lawyer is mandatory in both routes, judicial and extrajudicial (Law 11.441/2007 and CPC, art. 610, paragraph 2). At the notary's office, the lawyer assists the heirs and signs the deed. Beyond being a legal requirement, the lawyer is the one who assesses the best route, calculates the ITCMD and avoids mistakes that prove costly later.
What happens if I do not open probate?
The assets remain frozen in the name of the estate: the bank account is blocked, the property cannot be sold or regularized and the inheritance does not transfer. In addition, in São Paulo the ITCMD penalty runs: 10% of the tax if probate is not requested within 60 days, and 20% if the delay exceeds 180 days (Law 10.705/2000, art. 21), plus interest and monetary adjustment.
Can probate be done at a notary's office if there is a will?
Today, yes. Since CNJ Resolution 571/2024, it is possible to carry out extrajudicial probate even when there is a will, provided it has already been opened and judicially registered and that all heirs are legally capable and in agreement. Previously, this case had to go to court. If there is a dispute over the will, the path reverts to the judicial route.
There is a minor or legally incapable heir: must probate go to court?
Not necessarily. CNJ Resolution 571/2024 now allows extrajudicial probate with minor or legally incapable heirs, provided there is a favorable opinion from the Public Prosecutor's Office and the division of the estate respects the interests of the vulnerable party (as a rule, in equal shares). If there is a conflict among the heirs, however, probate remains judicial.
Where is the ITCMD paid and where does probate run in São Paulo?
The ITCMD is declared and paid to the São Paulo State Treasury Department (Sefaz-SP), through the tax's self-assessment system. Judicial probate runs in the Family and Succession Courts of the São Paulo Court of Justice (TJSP). Extrajudicial probate can be carried out at any notary's office in the state, and the deed of division or the deed is registered at the competent Real Estate Registry Office.
Will the ITCMD in São Paulo increase?
For now, São Paulo keeps the flat 4% rate. Constitutional Amendment 132/2023 and Complementary Law 227/2026 made the progressivity of the ITCMD mandatory (up to 8%), but this depends on a state law, which has not yet been passed in São Paulo. Under the principle of tax anteriority, a law published in 2026 would only take effect from 2027. It is therefore worth following the bill's progress in the Legislative Assembly.
When is it worth seeking a probate lawyer in São Paulo?
It is best to seek a lawyer soon after the death, because the 60-day ITCMD deadline starts running from the date of death and the penalty applies early. A probate lawyer defines the most economical route (notary's office or court), organizes the documentation, calculates the tax and conducts the division of the estate, avoiding delays, tax assessments and conflicts among the heirs.
Resolving probate early costs less — in money and in stress
Most probate problems do not come from the law, but from delay. The ITCMD deadline runs, the assets stay locked and, when the heirs finally sit down to resolve it, what was simple has already turned into a penalty, interest or discord.
A well-conducted probate does the opposite: it chooses the most economical route, observes the deadlines, calculates the right tax and unlocks the estate safely — so the family can move forward. Tailoring this handling to the reality of each inheritance is the work of someone who knows both Succession Law and the day-to-day of the notary offices and the São Paulo tax authorities.
