It was seamless. Oscar provided what we needed exactly with one phone call and a couple of email exchanges.

We are glad we hired Carolina!

Carolina is a calm, savvy and highly skilled lawyer with excellent English. She helped us resolve a complicated legal issue with a removal company based in Portugal. She guided us through complex legal, technical and cultural aspects of our claim. It gave us great peace of mind during a stressful time - and this is priceless for us.
We recommend her services for anyone navigating an international /complex legal claim. Thanks Carolina!

Maria of Advocates Abroad met the tight deadline and worked late to ensure complying for me on an important application. Very impressed with Maria's fluent English. Maria was genuine in her desire to assist persevering when the online application platform was different to what we had envisioned.

Rosa was exceptional

Rosa was exceptional. She help navigate all the laws, local issues, and intricacies that arose following my fathers death. She went above and beyond to track down documents, deal with banks and authorities on my behalf. Had I not had her I would have been at a total loss. It took about 14 months to sort everything and she was patient and kind. She is in one word - brilliant.

Excellent Legal Support for Property Purchase

Oscar and his colleague Diana helped me with the legal side of buying an apartment in Catalonia, and I’m really glad I had their support. They were professional, easy to talk to, and always quick to respond to my questions.

They made sure all the paperwork was in order and explained everything clearly, which took a lot of the stress out of the process. Buying property can be overwhelming, but having a reliable team like theirs made it so much easier.

I’d definitely recommend their services to anyone buying property in the area—and I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to them again in the future. Thanks again for all your help!

WOW! Domingo Sets the Gold Standard for Legal Services in Gran Canaria

WOW! … Where to even begin? Domingo is simply the most professional, thorough, and helpful lawyer/solicitor I have ever had the pleasure of using (and believe me, due to my international dealings, I have used a lot of them).

When we needed our wills done, we were not happy having them drawn up under Spanish law. Domingo ensured that our wills were prepared and secured under our home nations’ laws and perfectly accepted here in Gran Canaria under Spanish law!

When my wife (78) needed to sell her apartment, yet keep the right to continue living here for the rest of her life — with a minimum stipulation of 30 years — at an agreed lower rent level with usufruct rights, so she could access liquid funds from the sale without losing her home, he got this done and sorted.

And not only that — he organised everything, including the notary, gave us translated versions of the Spanish contract in English, and — I cannot say this often enough — was always available to us, whether by phone, email, or WhatsApp.

Even when we were in the notaría (notary’s office), he checked everything over. When there were items that were either unclear or not in our favour, he had them rewrite it again and again.

The integrity, professionalism, and dedication he shows to his clients are of the highest merit I have ever encountered.

Believe me when I say this: If you are in need of a lawyer/solicitor in Gran Canaria who speaks very good English and remains calm even under the highest pressure, then Domingo is the man you want by your side.

To put it in the words of Tina Turner: “Simply the Best” is what you get with Domingo!

Oh, and if you worry about him being expensive... don’t! I have paid more in the UK and Germany — just to mention a few countries where I’ve needed legal representation.

My British wife and I have used Domingo several times now, and we will always go back to him.

Yes, I know this is quite long — but I could go on and on about Domingo and his superb legal services. If, by now, you haven’t realised that this is the person you need, then I can’t help you.

To Domingo — until next time, you wonderful and amazing legal-knowledge computer on two legs!

All the best,
Michael

Oscar is the best choice to get a lawyer in Cataluña

Oscar is a great lawyer, he helped us with the buy off an appartment in Blanes. The whole purchase he advised us very good. I had a lot off questions and Oscar replied them all and took time for it. No hidden fees or negative experiences at all. Also it was very helpful that his English is perfect. Thanks for the assistance and for the people who are looking for a lawyer, you just find one 😊

Lawyer for separation

Through Advocate Abroad I was recommended Daniel, I am going through a very messy separation and wanted a reliable lawyer, he has been very attentive and lead me in the right direction, unlike most lawyers that I previously contacted, he got straight onto the job in hand and importantly kept the communication constantly open. We are by no means at the final stages but I feel quite confident that he will see this through to the end.

Iva is a great tax consultant

Iva was well versed in international tax law and she was a delight to work with. She went above and beyond to answer any follow up questions I had too.

Seamless and Stress-Free Greek Tax Registration – Highly Recommended!

Navigating the process of obtaining Greek tax numbers (AFM's) and registering on TaxisNet seemed like a daunting task, but thanks to Advocate Abroad, particularly Tonia, it was incredibly simple and effortless.

From the very first contact, the onboarding process was easy and prompt. Tonia clearly detailed all the information required from our side and provided the necessary documents, along with clear instructions on how they needed to be completed and witnessed. She was also transparent about the costs involved, providing a detailed breakdown of the work that would be done on our behalf.

Throughout the entire process, Tonia was exceptionally responsive. She always replied quickly to emails, and her communication was always clear and easy to understand. Her professionalism and expertise were evident; I felt complete trust in her knowledge of Greek tax laws and procedures.

We encountered no unexpected challenges, which is a testament to Advocate Abroad's preparation and guidance. The only minor delay was on our end, sorting out formalities with the Greek Consulate, but Tonia was incredibly patient and understanding of the situation. Once those formalities were completed and the documents sent to her, the AFM's were returned to us much quicker than I had anticipated.

The entire service was highly efficient, straightforward, and quick. What initially appeared to be a complex undertaking was made remarkably simple once Advocate Abroad and Tonia were involved.

I wholeheartedly recommend Advocate Abroad and Tonia to anyone needing assistance with Greek tax registration or similar services. Their support transformed a potentially stressful process into a remarkably smooth and successful experience.
