Das Buch befasst sich mit einer praxisrelevanten Ausgleichspflicht innerhalb der Erbengemeinschaft. Konkret geht es um die Frage, ob ein Erblasser mittels Teilungsanordnung einen Miterben zu einem Ausgleich aus seinem Privatvermögen verpflichten kann, wenn dieser dem Miterben per Teilungsanordnung mehr Nachlassgegenstände zuweist, als ihm wirtschaftlich per Erbquote zustünden. Dieser Frage ist der Autor auf zwei verschiedenen Wegen nachgegangen: Zum einen hat er untersucht, ob die im Rahmen der Rechtsnachfolge von Todes wegen durch qualifizierte Nachfolgeklausel in den Gesellschaftsanteil einer Personengesellschaft anerkannte Ausgleichspflicht auch auf die Fallgestaltung der überquotalen Teilungsanordnung übertragen werden kann. Zum anderen hat er sich im Einzelnen mit den bereits vorgebrachten Argumenten der Rechtsprechung und Fachliteratur befasst und diese umfassend gewürdigt. Die Thematik wurde bislang kaum argumentativ untersucht. Auf die offenen Fragen gibt das Buch nun Antworten.
