Inheriting a property can be a great opportunity... or a headache. From essential legal procedures to taxes and family decisions, managing an inheritance consisting of real estate requires clarity, strategy and, above all, professional advice.

When a person dies, their estate, assets, rights and obligations do not disappear, but are passed on to their heirs. This process is called inheritance, and in Catalonia we have our own legislation on this matter.

On July 14, the Law 15/2022, of July 12, came into effect. This law aspires to be the backbone of anti-discrimination law in our country, extensively developing various fields of action derived from Article 14 of the Constitution, which aims to guarantee and promote the right to equal treatment and non-discrimination of people.

There are few legal terms as casually used as these two. Not surprisingly, they are often incorporated as "almost-standard" clauses in thousands of sales contracts, without realizing the legal and economic consequences that the inclusion of one term or the other may entail for the signatories.

It is increasingly common for owners of commercial premises who are having difficulty renting them out to consider converting them into residential properties. This transformation can lead to a better return on investment and adaptation to current demand in the property market. However, the process requires compliance with a series of urban planning, technical and legal requirements that should be understood before beginning.

When initiating an economic activity, one of the aspects to consider is the most appropriate legal form for the activity we intend to carry out. If ours is a shared project, and we want the people involved to be able to vote and decide on the decisions taken, based on the principle of one person, one vote, then the most fitting formula is likely to be a cooperative. Cooperativism is the social economy formula with the most weight and tradition in Catalunya. As of December 2021, there were a total of 4,521 cooperatives in Catalunya, employing 45,417 people, with a combined turnover of 4.5 million euros.

Recently at Grup Carles, we renewed the Seal Aquí Assessorem l’Economia Social (Here We Advise the Social Economy), which certifies that we have undergone specific training in the social and solidarity economy. This training allows us to achieve fiscal, labor, and legal specialization in the cooperative model and certifies that we know, work with, and are networked with the cooperative movement and public administrations.

Have you made a job offer, the candidate has accepted it and even left their previous job... but in the end the contract has not been formalised? This situation is not uncommon, and the courts have ruled that if there is a preliminary contract or a proven promise of a contract, the person affected can claim compensation for damages. Find out what the case law says and how to handle these cases safely from the payroll and personnel department.
