Unmarried Couples Inheritance Rights

Summary

In Israel, if an unmarried man dies, his will dictates the distribution of his estate. Without a will, the Inheritance Law prioritizes legal spouses and blood relatives. Unmarried partners do not automatically inherit unless specified in the will. Consult an Israeli probate lawyer for detailed guidance.
