Aristotelis Onassis’ Will is the document referring to the establishment and the operation of the Onassis Foundation in detail and is by law absolutely binding the executors of the will, the Foundation and its administration.

 THE FOUNDATION ESTATE
Following that, his wife Jacqueline Bouvier Onassis claimed her legal share, which burdened exclusively Christina Onassis' share who was also restricted by the will to her legal share.
Following this, Christina claimed that her exclusion from the administration of the part of the estate she inherited from her father was contrary to the provisions of the applicable greek law on legal share, which provides that the inheritance of the legal share must be free from any restrictions.
On the other hand, Aristotelis Onassis, by means of his handwritten will, ordered the will’s executors to establish a private Foundation in Liechtenstein or elsewhere, which would bear the name of Alexander Onassis.
