I NEED LEGAL ADVICE

Now There Are Important Decisions to Make, but You Do Not Have to Face Them Alone…

An inheritance may seem straightforward… until you discover everything it involves: documents, deadlines, taxes, disagreements, or properties that have not been properly regularised.

If you are worried about getting it wrong, the estate being difficult to divide, or the process dragging on longer than it should, we can help.

We make sure everything is in order and that you know exactly what to do at every stage of the process.

This Is How We Can Help You as Your Inheritance Solicitors in Puerto de la Cruz…

▸ We handle everything from start to finish

From the death certificate to the registration of the assets in the heirs’ names. We take care of all the legal, tax and Land Registry documentation, so that you do not have to worry about complex paperwork or making costly mistakes.

▸ We regularise inherited properties

Many inherited properties come with issues: unregistered alterations, unresolved boundary matters, or earlier inheritances that were never formally completed. We take care of putting everything in proper order so that you can sell, let, or make use of your share without legal obstacles.

▸ A swift resolution with minimal conflict

If everyone is in agreement, our aim is for each heir to receive their share as soon as possible. We avoid delays, organise the distribution impartially, and handle the process so that it does not become a source of family tension.

▸ We can also help if you are inheriting from abroad

We can assist you with the inheritance process even if you live in another country. We represent heirs who are unable to travel, handle international documents, and take care of everything needed with notaries, registries and public authorities so that you do not have to travel.

Our Customers’ Trust is our Greatest Guarantee.

When Should You Start the Process for Your Inheritance?

Although there is no immediate legal deadline for accepting an inheritance, it is advisable not to leave it for too long.

Some steps, such as notifying banks or securing properties, should be taken as soon as possible.

Even if you do not yet have all the documentation, we will place at your disposal a solicitor in Puerto de la Cruz ready to help you begin the process and gather whatever is still missing along the way.

What Many People Do Not Know
(And What Could Complicate Everything)

Many heirs are not clear about what they need to do until a problem has already arisen.

That is why it is essential to have the right information from the outset: what steps to take, which taxes to pay, how to organise the distribution, or whether property needs to be sold. The sooner you have clarity, the easier it is to avoid mistakes that can later be costly or difficult to put right.

In addition, if you need it, we can also assist you as an estate distributor: we take care of interpreting the will and coordinating the division among the heirs so that everyone receives what they are entitled to, without delays or unnecessary tension.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Inheritance Legal Advice in Puerto de la Cruz

What happens if there is a property and not all the heirs agree?

It is not unusual for disagreements to arise when there are several heirs. In these cases, we analyse the situation and explain the options available to unlock the distribution. Sometimes, good organisation of the lots is enough. In other cases, it may be necessary to appoint an estate distributor or even consider the sale of the property.

How much tax is paid on an inheritance?

It depends on the value of the inherited estate and your degree of kinship with the deceased. But there is no need to worry: we do the calculations for you, explain any reliefs or allowances that may apply, and take care of filing all the tax documentation so that there are no mistakes or surprises.

What happens if there are assets or heirs outside Spain?

It is not a problem. We have handled many inheritances involving heirs or properties abroad. We can represent anyone who is unable to travel, arrange translations, and coordinate the process to ensure compliance with both Spanish and international law, making sure that everyone receives their share.
