Questions worth clarifying.
What if I do not know about the debts?
Raise this uncertainty before deciding about the inheritance. We review available information and identify checks still needed.
Can I enquire from outside Spain?
Yes. Explain which countries are involved and which documents you have. We will agree the review and any representation needed.
Should I send documents with the initial enquiry?
No. A short description and important dates are enough. We then agree which documents to review and how to provide them.
When will I know the fees and responsible professional?
Before engagement, we clarify the work, financial terms and who will handle it. If information is missing, we explain what is needed to assess it.
Can the outcome be guaranteed?
Decisions by authorities, courts or counterparties are not guaranteed. We explain options and limits based on documents and circumstances.
