What we solve
One advisory firm to organise your family's assets and taxes in Spain: from the will to the final tax filing.
Wills and estate planning
A well-drafted will prevents conflict and saves your family tax. We prepare it with you, organise your assets (property, savings, business) and arrange the signing before a notary.
Lifetime gifts
Gift now or inherit later? We run the numbers on both routes and choose the most efficient one for your family.
Family business succession
Family protocol, business succession and the tax advantages of a well-planned handover.
Inheritance administration
End-to-end handling: certificates, inventory, distribution, notarial deed, inheritance tax and municipal capital-gains tax. You sign; we take care of the rest.
Spanish inheritance tax
Filing and legal optimisation of inheritance tax in any Spanish region: allowances, regional reliefs and deadlines under control.
Cross-border inheritance
Estates with an international element: non-residents, assets in several countries, the European Certificate of Succession and tax treaties.

A relative has passed away
Full handling of the inheritance
If the death has already occurred, we take care of the whole inheritance from start to finish. Where the will provides for it, we act as executor and estate-divider (albacea contador partidor): we organise, value, file the taxes and distribute, so you don't have to fight with banks, the tax office or the family split.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to handle an inheritance in Spain?
For planning while alive we work with fixed-price packs: Basic will €500, Complete will €900 (most popular) and Complete estate plan €2,490, always with a written quote before we start. If the death has already occurred, handling the whole inheritance costs 1% of the estate, with a fixed written quote before we start. Notary, registry, the taxes themselves and the fees of appraisers and other external professionals are separate.
How much inheritance tax will I pay in Spain?
It depends on the region where the deceased lived, the kinship and the value inherited. In many regions parents, children and spouses pay very little thanks to allowances and reliefs; siblings, nephews and non-relatives pay considerably more. In the initial consultation we calculate your exact case before you make any decision.
What is the deadline for Spanish inheritance tax?
As a general rule, 6 months from the death, extendable if requested in time. Missing it means surcharges and interest, so it pays to start early.
What happens if there is no will?
The law decides who inherits and a notarial declaration of heirs is required, adding time and cost. It can still be processed, and we handle the whole procedure.
Can I legally pay less inheritance tax?
Yes. Planning while alive (an efficient will, staged gifts, succession agreements where applicable, family-business relief) lets you use the allowances the law already provides. No tricks: just planning done in time.
I'm a foreigner with assets in Spain. Can you help?
Yes, it is one of our specialities: cross-border estates, non-residents, the European Certificate of Succession and coordination with your home country. We work in English and French.
Do you work online?
Yes, the whole process can be done online from anywhere in Spain or abroad: video calls, notary signing coordinated for you and a client portal to track your case. In person at our office in Valencia.
