When co-owners wish to divide or terminate shared ownership of a property,
Many British citizens who own property or have business interests in Spain eventually face legal disputes — unpaid rent, breach of contract, property issues, or inheritance conflicts. A common question we receive at Atlantic Law Tenerife is: “Can I file a lawsuit in Spain even if I live in the UK?”The answer is yes — and the process is simpler than most people expect.
Unpaid debts are one of the most common legal problems faced by individuals and businesses in Spain — especially for foreign landlords, service providers, or investors who deal with clients from abroad. Fortunately, Spanish law provides several clear and effective legal procedures to recover money owed, whether through an amicable settlement or formal court action.
Owning a property in Spain can be a great investment — until a tenant stops paying rent or refuses to leave once the contract ends. In these cases, Spanish law provides a clear legal process to help landlords recover their property, known as eviction proceedings (desahucio).
Buying or inheriting a property in Spain together with another person — whether a partner, family member, or friend — is very common, especially in Tenerife. However, co-ownership can lead to legal complications when one party wants to sell, rent, or divide the property, and the other does not. Understanding how Spanish law regulates shared ownership is essential to avoid future disputes.
When parents separate or divorce in Spain, decisions about child custody, visitation, and financial support are among the most sensitive and important aspects of the process. For foreign residents, or couples of different nationalities, the legal framework can seem complex. Here’s what you need to know about how custody works under Spanish law and how to protect your parental rights.
Buying a property in Tenerife is an exciting investment — whether it’s a holiday home, relocation, or rental property. However, the Spanish legal process can be complex for foreigners unfamiliar with local requirements. Here we explain the key steps and how a lawyer can protect your interests throughout the transaction.
REAL STORIES
"A professional of integrity and deep commitment to the cause of children. In my international divorce case, she truly listened to my difficulties and defended my case with professional conscience and dedication. She is a genuine advocate for the rights of women and children. In my case, she was exceptionally thorough, finding the specific legal articles that allowed us to overturn the decision on appeal.
For these reasons, she has my full respect and admiration. I will always be grateful to her"
