FREQUENTLY ASKED
- How does Spain's second chance law work?
- The second chance law allows insolvent individuals — entrepreneurs and private persons — to obtain a discharge of unpaid liabilities when they can no longer meet their debts. The procedure is brought before the Commercial Court and requires formal conditions: good-faith conduct, a prior attempt at an out-of-court payment agreement and, in many cases, liquidation of the debtor's assets. The 2022 reform substantially broadened the scope of the discharge, including limited public debt. Properly handled, it offers a real way out for individuals and the self-employed facing over-indebtedness.
- What is the "legítima" and how does it affect a Spanish inheritance?
- The legítima is the share of the estate that Spanish law mandatorily reserves for certain heirs — primarily descendants, ascendants and the surviving spouse — limiting the testator's freedom to dispose of their assets. Under common Civil Code rules it amounts to two thirds of the estate for descendants (one third as strict legítima, one third as improvement). Regional rules vary substantially — Catalonia, the Basque Country or the Balearic Islands operate different systems. Early estate planning allows the orderly transmission of assets within the legal limits while minimising future conflict.
- How do I reclaim a floor clause or IRPH from my bank?
- The claim begins with an out-of-court request to the bank that marketed the mortgage loan, providing the deed and a detailed calculation of the amounts overpaid because of the clause. If the bank fails to respond within the statutory term or replies insufficiently, court proceedings follow. The case-law of the Spanish Supreme Court and the EU Court of Justice has established consumer-friendly criteria where lack of transparency is proven, with full refund of amounts unduly charged from the signing of the loan — except where the matter has already been litigated or expressly waived.
