Customer Reviews

This summer, my client Albert had a problem with the Catalan Bank Caixa - his mortgage account was blocked, and he lost the ability to pay mortgage instalments.
As a lawyer from Russia, I couldn't solve this problem on my own and turned to lawyers from AA. Maria was the first to respond, and I concluded an agreement with her on providing legal assistance to my client.
As a result, this problem was solved thanks to the highest professionalism and outstanding perseverance of Maria. Both my client Albert and I are completely satisfied with the quality of her work and are deeply grateful to her.
And if in the future I need legal assistance in Spain, I will definitely turn to Maria.

Angela has over 20 years experience as a practising lawyer in Spain. She has assisted English-speaking clients throughout her career in property matters, business law, immigration as we as the areas that so often touch on foreign residents' lives such as family law and inheritance matters.
Customer Reviews

As well as being very professional, she was also friendly and helpful.

Angela was helpful and caring right from the start. My case was with the British Consulate in Malaga and Angela didn't flinch knowing how difficult if not impossible to deal with a government organisation.
Angela had supported me mentally as well because of the way I was being treated, and I wasn't mentally capable of making any decision for myself. She guided me to have the confidence to face the challenge ahead, and we finished the case with the compensation and result that I wanted.
I will not hesitate to recommend Angela's service to anyone. Thank you Angela, I am grateful for your help and support. Kind regard, Jean

Very helpful, professional and value for money.
Angela was very helpful and very quick to come back with any questions I had.

Angela always replied immediately and her clear advice and guidance was so reassuring.
Fantastic customer service when I really needed it.

Angela is extremely proficient with excellent English, she responds to questions within an hour.
Easily the best lawyer I've ever dealt with both here in Spain & UK.
A very charming lady, thank you Angela!

Angela was amazing with us. We will recommend her to all of our friends and family and also would not hesitate in using her again.
Thank you so much once again Angela.

A highly professional and pragmatic response. In our particular case a range of outcomes was possible and it was refreshing to deal with someone who not only had an in-depth understanding of the law as it applied, but was also able to advise looking at the wider picture and context.
Communication was excellent and I believe that the service provided represented good value for money.
We will certainly continue to ask Angela to represent and act for us in all future legal matters.

Angela is very professional and always available to assist us. Especially when we couldn't come to Spain due to Covid she sorted everything in our name. We are extremely satisfied!

Angela’s English is perfect. She did an amazing job and kept me informed all though the process.
I will be recommending her to all my friends both in Spain and those in the UK with interests in Spain. I was happy with the end cost.
I cant praise her enough. Thank you Angela

Angela was extremely professional in all her communication with us, and on behalf of us. She had the ability to pre-empt our concerns and was extremely knowledgeable about her subject, which in turn provided us with security that we could trust her and she was acting in our best interest and within the law.
She also showed us kindness and empathy, which we so appreciated.
We were surprised at the cost for her services, we expected so much more having heard stories of other British people seeking Spanish residency and what they were being charged.
We have no hesitation in recommending Angela, and if ever I needed the services of a Lawyer in the future I would not hesitate to contact her. If she wasn’t able to help me herself, I have full confidence that she would help me find the person I needed.

Very helpful and professional. Excellent English!

Angela was very prompt and very clear in all communications. Throughout our residency process the rules kept changing and she stayed on top of what was required for us. She went above and beyond in helping us, she even helped when we ran into obstacles with exchanging our driving licenses. I have already recommended her to three friends who are now working with her, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to more!

Angela was always there to help and always answered my questions. Everything went smoothly despite the current climate. I would not hesitate to use her services again or to recommend her. Thank you.

Very satisfied with the service provided. Angela is bilingual and speaks English perfectly.

We dealt with Angela, and had a superb service - she was efficient, clear, timely and exceptionally helpful. We would recommend this respectable Solicitor who has excellent English.
Trustworthiness is so important, and step by step help was very much appreciated. Thank you Angela of myAdvocate Fuengirola.

Inma provided the current, accurate status of the law as it stands with respect to our issues.

Amazing service. Would recommend to everyone.

Inma was a pleasure to deal with, she was available by email and by WhatsApp and she answered all of our questions quickly and thoroughly. She was happy to deal with our estate agent, the other solicitor, the bank and the notary in our behalf and went above her duties to help with other things like with the community of owners in our urbanisation.
She gave a clear breakdown of costs, which helped with our budgeting, she was friendly and met us personally when we came to Spain to make sure all of our questions were answered before we began our purchase!
I would have no hesitation in using her services again for any legal matter in Spain. Inma was professional, friendly, extremely thorough during our purchase process, always contactable and explained the whole process to myself and my husband patiently and in excellent English ( las we don’t speak any Spanish at all). 5 star service!

Inma was extremely helpful in assisting me with my Spanish residency application. Very responsive, professional, and knowledgeable.

Brilliant communication, really helpful, approachable, solved my problem and professional.
Would use Inma always!

Inma was very helpful and easy to deal with. We only requested Inma's assistance with completing Spanish Will's but Inma also went to the trouble to find out some information regarding university entrance for our daughters and whether or not Brexit had any impact. She has also put me in touch with a tax adviser in relation to my business in Spain.

Inma tried very hard to resolve our situation and I can only commend her professionalism in a difficult situation. She was very sympathetic and determined to obtain a resolution.
We have no hesitation in recommending her for legal assistance and will use her services again, if the need arises.

She helped me lots , and have used her before. Great lawyer, much recommended, thanks again ,and we have on going other jobs

I was extremely pleased with the whole service.

Inma was very helpful and explained everything to me carefully in English, which was very much appreciated, as we only have a very basic grasp of Spanish.
She worked with an engineer to look at our project for a small campsite and we were very impressed with the service provided, and we are only sorry that we couldn't proceed with our plans at this time.
However if we do decide to go ahead I would have no hesitation in contacting Inma again, or indeed for any other legal advice or help.

Customer Reviews

I needed a lawyer since I got in trouble with getting a money refund after cancelling a car reservation due to fraudulent information posted on the internet by the car dealer. I then contacted Advocate Abroad and my case was followed by Maria, one of the lawyers of the team.
Thanks to her action I was able to get back in few days a relevant part of the money and this I consider an absolute success. When dealing with Maria I built the strong opinion that she is a smart, excellent and reliable professional, coming quickly to the point of the matter.
I would absolutely recommend her and Advocate Abroad in the future to friends who could need legal support in Spain, and I would myself contact them again in case of need.

He phoned us in The Netherlands within an hour of my initial message to AA. He was very helpful and generally reassuring. He made the effort to book us a much needed 9.00am Monday morning appointment at very short notice and had everything prepared when we arrived.
We hope to never need a lawyer at short notice in Sevilla again, but if we do, we have one!
Many thanks to AA too for the speedy connecting and convincing website.

Thank you ever so much Rafael for your help, understanding and professionalism. We are grateful!

Rafael is a consummate professional and will highly recommend him to anyone in need of his talent.

Rafael in Sevilla helped my husband & I through the EU residency process. He was very proactive with gaining our appointments quickly, accompanying us to all appointments as our Spanish is still a work in progress and keeping us informed of the process from beginning to end.
We would fully recommend Rafael.

My experience with Advocate Abroad and Rafael was excellent. He was most helpful and polite and he did a first class job. I would highly recommend this Company for any legal issues in Spain. Regards Michael. [View all G o o g l e Reviews]

Rafael went out of his way to assist us with numerous immigration-related procedures over the course of the last year. He helped us interpret the rules and regulations, which were often available only in Spanish, and helped us with the requisite interviews at the Foreigners’ Office in Seville.
This was complicated by the numerous delays and closures due to COVID and Rafael was indispensable in helping us obtain meetings and file documents online. He was always available to answer the many questions that crept us during this rather lengthy process and we could not have navigated the numerous steps without his invaluable assistance.

Excellent customer service from start to finish and a very nice person too.

Rafael did a great job informing me and my girlfriend of our options to relocate to Seville from the UK. Clear, friendly, and straight forward process. Thank you.

Responded excellently to the difficult changes to get my TIE residency. Very professional & approachable. Value for money.
Very happy with the service I received.

Rafael was always available to help and assist me, even if it was a case of me worrying! Which I really appreciated because the process was stressful at times and involved lots of preparation.
Rafael made sure I knew exactly what I had to do. He replied and responded quickly to my messages/calls/emails. He was very knowledgeable and highly organised with a vast experience. He made me feel confident. I will always recommend him. I praise his work highly.

Rafael was incredibly helpful and responsive.
I would highly recommend his services for anyone like me who is having difficulty navigating the Spanish system.

Rafael has provided us with excellent service for us as we relocated to Spain. He guided us through the NIE application and subsequent switch to TIEs. He assisted us through the process of our house purchase and also helped us with our wills.
We found his help invaluable. His approach was friendly and professional throughout. We would recommend him to anyone looking for English speaking legal services.

Very efficient

We had a good service from Raffaele. He was in a tricky position in obtaining timely information from other professionals and the Covid 19 situation made things take longer.
However he kept trying. Also he set a price and stuck to it even though the job was more involved than originally thought. I thought that the fee we paid was fair/good value.
His level of communication with us was good.

Raffaele assisted me with numerous time sensitive legal issues in regards to my residency status in Spain post-Brexit. Not only did he succeed at fixing every issue I presented to him, he also did it all in a timely manner and at a very reasonable cost.
His flexibility in handling legal matters is impressive, and was made even more impressive to have completed it all during this Covid-19 era where normal meetings/ appointments are incredibly hard to organise.
I would recommend him to any of my friends and colleagues, and will seek his legal advice in future matters should it be needed.

Raffaele got in touch very fast, listened carefully and was very supportive of the matter. Thank you !

Raffaele was extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble. He is also very friendly and his manner puts you at ease straight away. Yes I would use him again and in fact my sister uses his legal services as well.
If you need a lawyer who speaks fluent English and Spanish (and Italian) and works on your legal matters professionally and without delay, then I strongly recommend contacting Raffaele.

Very relaxed and not uptight. All very good.

Raffaele was responsive, understanding and polite.
He provided excellent value for money, explaining and providing appropriate solutions in a professional manner all the while ensuring technicalities and possible outcomes were understood.

he is professional in all points mentioned above, I am so happy with dealing with Raffaele, he always gives me the required information.

Raffaele exceeded my expectations and always went the extra mile to assist me with my needs!

Very Satisfied with the service.
