Expressen reports on Lena Olin's success in an inheritance dispute. Lena Olin and her brother jointly owned a house in Skanör-Falsterbo, with each owning half.

When her brother Mats Olin passed away, he bequeathed his half to three other relatives in his will. According to Lena Olin, Mats verbally revoked the will and claims that it was not properly executed.

Lena Olin has already won a partial victory against one of the relatives in the district court, with the verdict stating:

The district court finds that Lena Olin Hallström has a better right than NN to the estate of Mats Olin.

This relative has accepted the verdict.

However, the legal battle continues with the two other relatives, and Lena Olin must submit evidence by March 19, while the other two relatives must do so by April 10, 2025.
