Why Calahonda owners make a Spanish will

Avoid the foreign-will route

Without a Spanish will, your heirs must apostille and translate your foreign will and prove the foreign law to the notary — adding months and costs.

Keep your freedom to choose

British and Irish nationals can choose their national law, which generally allows you to leave your estate as you wish, rather than following Spanish forced-heirship rules.

Living will and powers of attorney

Many of our Calahonda clients also sign a living will and a power of attorney at the same appointment, for complete peace of mind.

What does a Spanish will cost?

Compared with the cost of probating a foreign will in Spain — apostilles, sworn translations, legal opinions on foreign law and months of delay — a Spanish will is one of the best investments you can make for your family.

Frequently asked questions — Wills in Calahonda

Usually mirror Spanish wills, signed together, choosing your national law and leaving your Spanish assets to each other and then to your children. We confirm the best option for your family in a free first consultation.
Indefinitely, until you make a new one. We recommend reviewing it after major life events such as a marriage, divorce, birth or selling the property.
It is strongly recommended. A foreign will can be used in Spain, but it must be apostilled, translated and backed by proof of the foreign law — which delays the inheritance by months and costs your heirs far more than a Spanish will.
If Spanish law applies, part of the estate is reserved for children (the legítima). But as a foreign national you can choose the law of your nationality in your Spanish will; for many British clients, for example, that means full freedom to leave assets as they wish.
