If is well known that being involved in
Court proceedings whether civil or criminal is
stressful and daunting.
Being involved in a foreign country is much
worse. The fear of the unknown is often
difficult to overcome.
The difference in systems together with the
language barrier can cause much confusion
and even a wrong decision.
The most important thing is to take legal
advise as soon as you receive a summons to
appear in court or if the Police tell you that
you will be taken to court.
Timely intervention gives you time to
prepare and to gather all the relevant facts.
We will ensure that all documents in
Spanish are properly explained to you so
that you are fully aware of what is
happening.

necessary to use the services of a Spanish
Lawyer (Abogado) which we are pleased to
be able to offer to our clients. Interpreters
are supplied by the court which you would
be entitled to if you do not understand and
