Spanish legal services
How we can help
We provide expert advice in all aspects of Spanish property law for individuals and property-owning
companies. We provide bilingual assistance in relation to all aspects of buying, owning and selling a
property in Spain, whether you are a non-Spanish speaking client or more familiar with Spain and its
legal system. We can also advise on Wills, succession matters and assist with Spanish litigation both in
the UK and Spain.
We can provide you with advice in the following areas:
Buying and selling a property in Spain
As independent professionals regulated by the Law
Society of England and Wales and with expertise in
Spanish law, we always act in your best interests.
Transferring ownership of a Spanish property following a
divorce or separation
We ensure that the transfer of ownership as a result of a
settlement agreement is dealt with by the Land Registry in
Spain as quickly as possible.
Administration of an estate in Spain when someone dies
With our extensive experience, we will liaise with the
Spanish Public Notary, Land Registry and Banks on your
behalf to ensure the efficient administration of the estate.
Estate planning for property and assets in Spain
We will ensure you own your Spanish property in the
most appropriate way for you and your family, taking into
account Spanish inheritance law and tax.
Spanish Wills
Peace of mind that your chosen beneficiaries will inherit
your Spanish property, protected from any dispute.
Disputes and litigation in Spain
Using our qualified solicitors, we will represent you to
ensure the smooth and efficient management of the

Cross border enforcement proceedings
Based on European Regulations, we will be able to obtain
the enforcement of any Judgment in Spain against any
assets owned by the defendant in another European
country.
Spanish Tax advice
In the current climate, when the Spanish Tax authorities
are anxious to collect as much tax as possible, we will
provide you with qualified advice to avoid tax liabilities,
overcharges and fines.

We will draft and assist you during the process of creating
a Power of Attorney in the UK to be used in Spain.

If you are looking to set up a business or establish a
branch of your existing UK company in Spain, or if your
