Over the past few years, fundamental changes have been adopted in Czech private law, modifying both its conceptual framework and its content. The innovations also include the introduction of some new legal instruments for estate planning. However, the optimistic expectations concerning the applicability of such instruments clash not only with the imperfections of the legal regulation, but also with the distrust towards instruments for the administration of property that are currently being jeopardized by global pressures aimed at achieving maximum transparency of such structures. Consequently, shortly after its introduction, the concept of estate planning has had to fight for its legitimacy and thus, essentially, for its very survival.
