WILLS
Fast and reliable Spanish will writing service
If you own property or assets in Spain, having a Spanish will is essential to make sure that your wishes are respected and that your loved ones are taken care of after you pass away. Spanish inheritance laws can be complex, especially for non-residents, but with the right legal support, you can ensure your affairs are in order – giving you peace of mind that everything is in place when the time comes.
At Gascon Bernabeu, we understand that writing a will can be daunting, especially in a foreign language. Our English-speaking lawyers are dedicated to providing a fast and reliable Spanish will writing service. We’ll make the entire process as straightforward as possible for you and make sure that your wishes are clearly articulated and legally sound. There’s no need for you to even travel to Spain if it’s not convenient for you.

Why you need a Spanish will
A Spanish will ensures your assets in Spain are passed on according to your wishes. Without one, Spanish law will decide how your estate is to be divided – and that may not reflect what you want for your estate. Since inheritance laws vary between regions in Spain, having a will specifically tied to the area where your assets are located gives you the best chance of ensuring your wishes are carried out. It also provides peace of mind and makes the inheritance process easier for your family during what is usually an incredibly difficult time, helping to prevent unnecessary stress, delays, and complications.
How our Spanish will writing service works at Gascon Bernabeu
At Gascon Bernabeu, our team of English-speaking lawyers will guide you through the process of creating your Spanish will from start to finish. We provide clear, step-by-step assistance to make sure that your wishes are accurately reflected and legally sound. Here is what you can expect from our will writing service:
- Initial consultation – We’ll start by having a chat about your assets and your wishes for the future. Our team will answer any questions you have and explain the entire process in simple terms.
- Drafting your will – Next, we’ll create your will in Spanish, using a two-column format that includes an English translation. This way, you can easily understand everything. Once you’re happy with the wording, we’ll guide you through the next steps.
- Signing before a notary – To make it official, your will needs to be signed in front of a notary. This can be done in Spain or in your home country. We’ll help you find a notary nearby and set up a convenient appointment. The notary will witness your signature and make the document official.
- Registration in Madrid – After you sign your will, we need to send the original document to the Spanish Registry of Wills in Madrid to make sure your will is legally recognised.
At Gascon Bernabeu, we offer a fixed-fee will-writing service, so there are no financial surprises. However, it’s best to keep in mind that the notary will charge separately for witnessing and processing the document, so it’s best to account for that in your budget.
