What do you do when you have a Scandinavian judgment while the assets in which you want to execute the judgment are in Spain?
We help to obtain Spanish recognition of the Scandinavian judgment so that it can be enforced in Spain.
When a lawsuit in Spain concludes with a verdict, the next step will be a new phase in which the judge will be asked to begin execution of the sentence. However, it is not always that the judgment has been handed down in Spain and it must therefore be given legal force in Spain before it can be enforced.
If you do not have a judgment but a document signed with a Spanish notary, it can mean that you could go straight to execution without first having to obtain a judgment. This may be the case, for example, if you have lent money to somebody and you have remembered to have the loan agreement signed with a Spanish notary.
Do not throw good money after bad. If there are no assets in Spain it does not make sense to attempt enforcement.
In Spain, formalities mean a lot. Be prepared for this so you can easily find relevant original documentation.
This means that all documentation must be in Spanish. Do not expect English to be sufficient.
