A Spanish lawyer who has lived on both sides.
I am a Spanish abogado and a Spanish and British national. Having lived outside Spain for fifteen years, I know what Spanish procedure looks like from abroad, and how to explain it to people who have never dealt with it.
My practice centres on residence permits, Spanish nationality and international inheritance. I handle your matter personally, in English or Spanish, before immigration offices, the Ministry of Justice, consulates, notaries, land registries and the courts.
US attorneys and CPAs: a Spanish lawyer for the Spanish side.
Estates with a home in Spain, clients buying or selling there, an affidavit of Spanish law for a US court. I handle the Spanish part at published fees and report to you.
