This is how the letter ends:
"Agradezco de antemano la atención que sirva brindar a la presente y sin otro particular por el momento, reitero a usted la seguridad de nuestra atenta consideración."
This is the translation I came up with:
"I thank you in advance for any assistance to this matter and without anything further at present, best regards".
Please, let me know if it is correct.

Yours faithfully
This is what I would probably use in a formal UK context. Generally, Yours faithfully is considered more formal than Yours sincerely.
And I've never been a fan of "truly" for formal missives... but then again, I'm old school/an old git :-)

Very truly yours
It's meaningless in reality. It's like the old one I learned at typing school here in Spain: "Su seguro servidor que le besa la mano", abbreviated S.S.Q.B.M. Another favourite: "Es gracias que espera alcanzar de su recto proceder, cuya vida guarde Dios muchos años". Formulas of this type have long been abandoned in English. :-)

patinba
: In this case “consideración” is synonymous with “respect” or “esteem” and has nothing to do with offering “attention” or “careful consideration” as Adriana mistakenly proposes. It can be seen that the writer is asking for something not offering a service

**Your Excellency, please accept the assurances of my highest consideration".** It is a formal type of wishes and shows cordial relations with the other country. However, as you state in the heading, "legal", whichever closing you chose is perfectly okay and not as pompous! Regards.
