“On 19 July 2024, I instructed Leggado Abogados to prepare a legal claim to obtain precautionary measures against other heirs as they were selling properties in an inheritance. I was assured that they were experts in inheritances, and highly experienced in this type of work. 2500 euros was paid for the service.
Despite providing all the necessary documents and instructions, the documents prepared by Leggado were poorly written, and did not contain important evidence, and my instructions. I raised my concerns with Leggado on numerous occasions and asked them to better prepare the documents. My concerns were dismissed and I was assured by Angel Seisdedos that based on his professional experience the documents he prepared were “more than correct” and met “the necessary requirements for the precautionary measures we are seeking”.
The application for precautionary measures was presented to the court on Friday 26 July, and dismissed by the court 2 days later on 30 July due to legal, evidential, procedural, and drafting defects. I was casually informed of this on 31 July.
Despite the assurances made by the lawyer that the documents were more than correct, no explanation was provided for the defective application that was rejected and dismissed by the Court. Instead, he requested a further 1200 euros so he could prepare another document to rectify the mess he created.
I attempted to speak with the lawyer by telephone on 31 July, however he informed me by email that “I am on holiday until September- happy summer – let’s speak in September”. I found this attitude to be unprofessional and callous.
The situation is that 2500 euros has been lost in less than a fortnight, and the situation is now worse than before. Leggado are now refusing to respond to my emails.
I am writing this review to review to warn others of my experience so the same does not happen to them. The service I received does not deserve even one star.
Instruct an alternative competent lawyer!”
