Margarita Santana, Lawyer, on Pepe Navarro's Inheritance: 'That's Very...'

For many years, Pepe Navarro and Ivonne Reyes have been at odds over the paternity of her son, Alejandro Reyes. A judge established that the presenter, after refusing to take DNA tests, is legally the boy's father. But today this matter has gained relevance, due to how it might affect the legacy of the Cordoban.

In this case, the lawyer Margarita Santana has been very clear about this matter. Thus, she has stated: “He can't disinherit this boy because you have to have a legal cause. That is very difficult.”

Margarita Santana Clarifies the Situation Regarding Pepe Navarro's Legacy

In 2012, a judge determined that Pepe Navarro is the legal father of Alejandro Reyes. Since then, the presenter, who now does want to take the relevant genetic tests, has kept that the boy is not his son.

The fact that Ivonne Reyes has gained relevance again, due to the economic ruin she is in, has caused the paternity issue to return to the media spotlight. More so after it has been reported that the presenter might have a trick up his sleeve to prevent something in the future. No less than the young man being able to inherit, just like the rest of his offspring.

In this situation, the magazine Semana has spoken with the lawyer Margarita Santana, from the law firm Santana Lorenzo Abogados. The first thing she has said is that “the reality we have, as of today, is that this boy has all the rights of an heir's child.”

“Regardless of whether he is a child born of marriage or not. Exactly, he has the same rights both in terms of succession, inheritance… Everything the same.”

When asked if there would be any possibility for Pepe to prevent Ivonne's son from accessing his legacy, she has been equally blunt. She has stated: “He can't disinherit this boy because you have to have a legal cause. That is very difficult.”

The Legal Strategies Pepe Navarro Could Use

Faced with the possibility that Pepe Navarro seeks to minimize the portion of his estate that would correspond to Alejandro, the lawyer has pointed out that there is an option. Thus, she has explained: “he can benefit some more than others,” although, of course, always respecting the legitimate portion.

Not forgetting that she has also stated that Pepe “in life can try to distribute his assets so that, when the day comes, as little as possible remains.” Although it may happen that “there Ivonne's son could challenge it if it affects the strict legitimate portion. It is always important that whatever he does respects the legitimate portion.”

This conflict highlights the legal and emotional complexities that can arise in paternity and inheritance disputes. Yes, emphasizing the importance of addressing these issues with appropriate legal advice and sensitivity toward all parties involved.
