German term
Abwicklung
German to English
Law/Patents
Law (general)
Estates/Inheritance
"Sie bevollmächtigen mich mit der Abwicklung der Erbschaft nach X."
I'm unsure which English word (for Abwicklung) to use in this context relating to German inheritance law. This is from a solicitor's letter. The solicitor is clearly asking the recipient of the letter to give him/her power of attorney to ??? the estate of X.
