Who will inherit if the parents died?
If the parents died without a will, the children will get everything to be shared equally. Thus, Article 979 of the Civil Code states:
“ARTICLE 979. Legitimate children and their descendants succeed the parents and other ascendants, without distinction as to sex or age, and even if they should come from different marriages.
An adopted child succeeds to the property of the adopting parents in the same manner as a legitimate child.”
