 HI Foxbat, re your damp problem.

I had a specialist exterior wall treatment business in the uk for many years.In fact tried to kick it off out here but have to say most

clients reluctant to pay the prices. The base material is about 6 times more expensive than rubbish spanish paint

The 2 key products were; Vapour permeable paint ( it breathes, doesnt flake and blister and you can apply it to wet surfaces)

2) A transparent waterproofer. Its a chemical compound based on  aluminium oxide but don't use silicone as it globulises like mercury ( ie pools together and forms pockets of high and low coverage)

First ting you need to do is dry it out, then clean it with Sodium Hoperchloride ( old formula Domestos)

then go for your transparent waterproofer.You cant readily get it in Spain so I have imported it from time to time 

Where are you Foxbat . . If youre anyway Mijas way CDS, I,ll gladly try and help you with a bit of advice.

Anyone tell me anything about this development?

Historically I seem to recall there were all sorts of legal problems there but I,ve just been asked about it and its not an area I know terribly well.

 

Is it all sorted now or best avoided.

Question for Maria:

Can I ask you something.
 
I am in dispute with a lawyer who I engaged to handle a matter concerning my illegal employment in Spain.

 
We agreed he would take my case and he verbally assured me he would requre 500 euros in advance plus 15% of any successful claim but I received nothing in writing.
 
I gave him the 500 euros and he gave me  a receipt on a blank sheet of paper  which I queried but he saw nothing wrong in it.
 
We went to arbitration and now he wants another 1000 euros to continue with the case which I have refused and he will not pursue my case, or release information about it to me so I can pursue it alone.
 
Can I ask:
 
Are lawyers legally required to state fees in writing in advance ?
 
Ae lawyers required to give proper receipts on formal headed notepaper?
 
Can you give me an address of the Colegio de  Abogados who I can take this up with.
 
I mention no names because that would be unprofessional.

 
Thanks
 
Andy H
