What is a power of attorney, and what is it for?

A power of attorney is a legal document that gives one person the authority to act on behalf of another in specified or all legal and financial matters. A general power of attorney grants broad powers, while a special power of attorney is limited to specific situations.

The power of attorney is useful for non-residents in Spain, especially when buying or selling a house, but it has many other applications as well.

By granting us power of attorney, we can act on your behalf with government agencies and manage necessary procedures. This relieves you from the burden of dealing directly with bureaucratic processes. We handle everything from document collection to application submissions, ensuring that your processes are conducted efficiently and accurately.
