Although your British will can be enforced in Spain once you obtain the Grant of Probate in the UK, the process is much easier and cheaper when you have a Spanish will in place.

Hi,

I’m a solicitor qualified in Spain & England and Wales. I could advise regarding your issue.

A spanish Will could be witnessed in the spanish consulate in the UK. I could draft the Will for you and arrange an appointment in the closest consulate of your location.

Please email me to . to provide more information regarding this matter.

Please let me know if I could be of further help.

Thank you and regards
