Reference: disclaim an inheritance

Reference information:
to disclaim -(law) To relinquish or deny having a claim; to disavow another's claim; to decline accepting, as an estate, interest, or office. (wikionary)

See google for "disclaim an inheritance"

Disclaim seems to be the correct legal term.

מצד שני מילון שקד & הכהן אומר
הסתלקות מירושה או הסתלקות מן העיזבון = withdrawal from inheritance.
