We cover diverse legal services and provide assistance with all aspects of legal assistance that may be required from Spanish Solicitors.

 

PROPERTY LITIGATION

Unfortunately there are people who have purchased off-plan properties and there may have been a breach of contract on the part of the developer, as the property has not been built as planned (as they were sold without the required building licences) or there has been a breach of contract by the developer not building the property within the timeframe originally agreed, or the developer has not built the property to the standard originally promised in the contract (not in accordance with the building plans).

If the developer may have been in breach of contract, you have the right to make a legal claim. If you would like to request our legal assistance and discuss the case, click to advise us.
