I am about to purchase a property in Ayamonte in Spain and I'm wondering whether anyone can recommend a good solicitor in the town? We are going to be doing some building work on the property if were are successful in the purchase so it's imperative that the legality of the house, as it stands, is in order as I'd like to avoid any nasty surprises when going back to the local council for approval for any new work. Many thanks if anyone can recommend someone from experience.

Welcome to BE.

I have moved your thread over to our Ayamonte Forum so people who actually know the area will read your post and may be able to help you.

Once you have 3 posts, I can PM you, not all the lawyers are as professional as we would expect them to be.

Many thanks both and apologies for putting in the wrong places initially.

Thanks Rosemary, much appreciated

We use Ana Paulo Villamil at A&A Solicitors - she is very good, speaks very good English and has a British assistant.
The office is on the 1st floor of the (only) tower block above the Post Office and opposite the ferry.

Hi, I would also recommend Ana P Vilamil like mike. Always very helpful and her assistant ( Ann ) keeps on top of your annual taxes that have to be paid in CASH at the town offices and your annual return. I can also suggest a good architect should you need one that APV will liase with. Ana is listed as AA Solicitors. Office is on the mezzanine floor of the ugly tower block overlooking the ferry pontoon.

Good morning. I can recomend to

Hello Gustav 76, I would also recommend Ana Paola Villamil at A&A Solicitors, she helped us tremendously with obtaining our residency cards, registering us with a local Doctor and much more. Her English secretary is also called Anna, telephone number if you want to have a chat with her is 959 322 838

I can recommend someone NOT to use in any circumstances..... many agree, PM me if you want to know, or just follow the advices here. The people named in this thread are not the one I am referring to.

Many reading this know exactly who I'm referring to... their reputation preceeds them!
