%X Sa£¿etak This paper analyzes the impact of family-law relations and their development on the creation of legal regulations in the area of inheritance law. Inheritance law overlaps with family law to a large extent, which has been clearly shown throughout the development of both legal disciplines. In inheritance law, the family affiliation with the deceased is crucially important for defining the persons that are entitled to intestate succession. The paper analyzes specific issues of inheritance in marriage and in cohabitation. The author points to individual development trends in this area in comparative law perspective. She notes that they mostly relate to the increase of the legal inheritance share of the spouse and consequently to the reduction of the legal inheritance rights of the descendants. Changes can be accounted for by the general social development, and especially the present-day demographic trends
