Can anyone recommend a reliable place in the Manilva area to get Wills drawn up? We have read and heard horror stories re charges and don't want to be ripped off. Thanks.

A Will, just like any other legal document must be made in front of a Notary. 
 
So why waste any money on a solicitor. 
 
Go to a Notary.  Take your ORIGINAL passport as ID. 
 
Tell them what you want. They will draw it up and you can sign it. 
 
You will get a certified copy. 
 
The Will is then registered by the Notary at the central registry in Madrid. 
 
When the time comes, any solicitor can search, find where it is recorded, and access it.

Unless you have got a complicated estate, in most of the cases, and if the Notary speaks English or you have got your good interpretor, just going to the Notary office suffice.
