Answer

Why do some inheritance disputes in Mallorca involve DNA tests?

DNA tests can sometimes help when official records are missing or unclear, especially in older family lines. They are usually only one part of the evidence and must be supported by certificates, registers or other documents. Because inheritance cases are legal matters, DNA evidence alone is rarely enough.
