How I work

Clients usually come to me when they want more than a technical legal answer. They want someone who can understand the wider picture, stay close to the detail, and help move things forward in a smooth and convenient way.I work personally on every matter and, when needed, coordinate with other specialists in tax, litigation, finance, technicians, or other relevant areas. That means clients get a more tailored and joined-up approach rather than having to manage different advisors on their own.

Testimonials

Jonathan Cook 🇬🇧

Vila lease dispute resolution"Krishna was amazing at a time of need. Our family was in need of a solicitor regarding a rental lease disagreement and Krishna stepped in and dealt directly with the property owner and agent, resulting in a return of a significant deposit and smooth handover of the property. Couldn’t recommend Krishna highly enough. He was amazing."

Andy Brown 🇦🇺

Debt recovery and strategic legal advice”I cannot recommend Krishna highly enough.What began as legal assistance on an important and private matter was handled with professionalism, integrity, attention to detail, and clear communication throughout.Krishna’s ability to explain complex legal issues in a practical and straightforward manner gave me complete confidence during the process. His knowledge of Spanish law, legal processes, and local networks was invaluable, and he handled the matter with genuine empathy, kindness, and understanding during a challenging time.Since then, our professional relationship has grown into a genuine friendship, and Krishna has become one of the few advisors we trust with highly confidential personal and business matters. His judgement, discretion, honesty, and commitment to his clients are exceptional, and I would not hesitate to recommend him.”

Mitch Patel 🇮🇳

Hospitality leases and business expansion”Krishna Bas helped us negotiate the lease for our restaurant in Puerto Portals with the Harbor Authority. Later on, he also helped us enter into a second lease that allowed us to expand the kitchen and seating area. He brought a practical and commercial approach to both matters, and his support was very valuable in helping us build a successful and viable business. He is my reference when exploring new growth opportunities.”

Hugh Houman 🇺🇸

Cross-border inheritance and property sale"Krishna Bas was instrumental in resolving a very complex inheritance process in Spain. None of the heirs were residents in Spain, and the matter involved a large amount of documentation, consular formalities, powers of attorney, NIEs, and coordination with multiple jurisdictions. After months of delays and very little progress with previous advisors, Krishna helped us with a different route and gave new momentum to the process. Once the inheritance was finally completed, he also helped us sell the property remotely, which made everything much easier for us. We are very grateful for his professionalism, persistence, and support throughout."

Complex property sale and tenant resolution"Hiring Krishna Bas as the lawyer to guide us through the sale of a property we owned was one of the best decisions of our lives.The need to sell a family apartment turned into a complex task, because we had two issues that first had to be resolved. First, the apartment was legally occupied by tenants under a lease contract that was due to end six months later. Second, we needed to find buyers who would settle an outstanding tax debt at the same time as the purchase. Beyond these circumstances, many additional difficulties arose during the drafting and finalization of both the deposit agreement and the deed of sale.Throughout the entire process, Krishna always took the initiative in resolving the problems that came up with the buyer's agent, the buyers’ lawyer and bank, which was arranging the mortgage from the buyers, as well as making the final adjustments to the deed with the notary who formalized the sale. His support and professionalism gave us constant peace of mind, knowing that things would end well. And so it was: in the end, the sale was completed to everyone’s satisfaction. We have no doubt that the excellent work of our lawyer, Krishna Bas, was decisive in reaching this happy outcome"

Commercial real estate acquisition”I had the opportunity to rely on Krishna Bas for the acquisition of our second center in Spain, a Masia valued at €1.4M. Krishna is not only an exceptional lawyer, but his business mindset makes him the perfect advisor for any situation. He has a real talent for persuading the other side and the skill to bring things to a successful close; even the most difficult deals, or those considered impossible to achieve. Being in his hands gives you the same peace of mind as someone going into surgery knowing they have the wisest surgeon. Krishna anticipates and manages the most unthinkable details that simply escape everyone else.”
