Do you live in France and own, or want to buy, a home on the Costa Brava? Have you settled in Girona, or are you dealing with an inheritance with assets on both sides of the border? At MH & MG Abogados, French is one of the firm’s working languages.
French, one of the firm’s working languages
French is spoken at our firm. Your matter does not depend on one particular lawyer: French is a language the team works in, so you can raise your questions, receive explanations and go through the documents in French at every stage. Besides French, English, German and Dutch are also spoken at the firm.
How we can help you
- Buying and selling property: NIE, deposit contract (arras), land registry and planning checks, and signing before the notary. We explain this in our article on buying property with a lawyer.
- Tenancies, communities of owners and property disputes.
- Cross-border inheritance and wills involving assets in Spain, including the choice of law under the EU Succession Regulation.
- Residence, NIE and immigration.
- Family, civil and employment law, debt claims and mediation.
Understand every document before you sign
Contracts, deeds, notices and deadlines come in Spanish, and the rules do not always match French law. We explain in French what you are signing, which deadlines are running and how the Spanish system differs from the one you know. Official procedures are conducted in Spanish and, where necessary, we arrange sworn translations.
