Answer

Can a Mallorca property inheritance case depend on old wills and archive research?

Yes, old wills and archival records can be decisive when ownership or family descent is unclear. Lawyers often need to search civil registers, church books and notarial archives to reconstruct how property passed through a family. These cases can take months or even years because missing records cannot always be replaced.
