Holocaust-era claims
Holocaust-era claims are legal requests made by individuals or their descendants seeking compensation or restitution for property, assets, or rights lost or unfairly taken during the Holocaust (1933-1945). These claims often involve assets seized by Nazi authorities or their collaborators, such as bank accounts, art, businesses, or personal belongings. Governments and institutions created processes to evaluate and settle these claims, aiming to provide acknowledgment and reparations to victims or their families for injustices endured during that period.
