Good News for Expats.
Hope for thousands of Britons who lost fortunes in Spanish property ventures after ex-pats win legal battle with bank to return £1.3million
Keith Rule spent hours trawling the Internet for help after a bank refused to return his £45,983 deposit on a villa which was never built
He took on bank bosses after discovering a 45-year-old property law
Not only has he got his money but he has helped win back nearly £1.3million for 46 other buyers
The 46-year-old impressed lawyers so much he has been asked to work with them on a part-time basis

Well done that Judge as well for doing the decent thing.
A ray of sunshine amidst all the doom, gloom and corruption, let's hope it's a sign of things to come.

Fantastic - but it does make you wonder why Spanish lawyers are not capable of having done this.

read the paper ..Pensioner Reg Matthews, a friend of Mr Rule's who has had his £22,980 deposit returned, added: 'It’s a great relief to have my money back although I was keen on having a place in the sun like thousands of other Brits.
'Without Keith’s help I and many others would have lost everything.'
