Hi everyone,

I was born and raised in the UK. My mother is British and my father was Turkish. My father died in 2014 and I was named as executor of his British will.

The issue is that I was never registered in Turkey as my father’s son. His death has been registered in Turkey, but I now need to prove to the Turkish authorities that I am legally his son.

My father had a brother and sister. Their parents, my grandparents, left behind two flats in Turkey. My father, his brother, and his sister each had an inheritance share. My father’s share should now pass to me, his brother’s share goes to his daughter, and his sister is still alive and keeps her own share.

I do not want Turkish citizenship. I only want to prove the parent-child relationship so I can deal with my father’s inheritance share.

Theres other problems. I think my cousin is renting the apartments out and keeping the income.

Turkish law is complicated and every firm iv contacted wants upwards to 10,000+ euros for paperwork and court case.
