Property conveyancing
Registry and urban planning due diligence, review of deposit agreements (contratos de arras), notary assistance and registration with the Barcelona Land Registry. We protect your investment from offer to handover.

Litigation & evictions
Fast-track evictions for non-payment, precarious tenancy proceedings, recovery of unpaid rent and oral hearings before the Barcelona Courts. Optimised timelines and full courtroom representation.
