Please could someone give me some advice on the follow.
My Lawyer keeps telling me that he has been to the Spanish Courts and lodged a case against the people who own half of the property by Inheritance.
This was in October 2008, just over a month ago after sending him loads of emails he said he would go to the court and try to find out what happened, he then said that the court had sent the Lawsuit but by normal mail to the Heirs in the UK, not by the proper method, but they said they would do so and it would go through Madrid to the UK.
It is now over a month and he says he has been back to the courts but they will not tell him anything, so he does not know if the Lawsuit has been sent or not.
I have had nothing from the Court only a copy of what he was putting into the courts, but no signatures or heading on the paper at all.
He has got all my original paperwork plus POA, that I gave him.
This has all been ongoing since May 2008 and I am no further forwarding in getting the property sorted out to be sold.
All he has told me now is that I just have to wait these things take time, I do not know how long he thinks I am willing to wait.
He keeps giving me a court number, which means nothing to me and do not know what he expects me to do with it.
I have contacted the Queens Bench twice in the UK to see if anything has been sent from the Courts in Spain to these people and so far nothing has been received.
I have already paid him two thirds of his payment he asked for, plus getting the POA done for him.
Do you think he is just giving me the run around and has not really done anything.
Best wishes
