This service is available across Spain

Who Is This Service For?
If you have already decided on the type of business you want to run, and where you wish to locate it, then the main decision you will need to make is whether you should set it up as a limited company or as a sole trader.
This can be extremely important as you can save a considerable amount of money depending on which option you choose. Both have benefits and drawbacks.
Self-employed is of course cheaper to set-up and less costly to manage since the reporting requirements are lesser than in the case of limited companies.
On the other hand, limited companies do limit your liability in the case of a claim against your business, which depending on the type of business could be the only reason you need to opt for this type of structure. Otherwise, a limited company is rather more flexible when there are a number of partners or when the company has other, more complex attributes.

What Does This Service Consist Of?
- Ensure legal interests are protected, especially when creating a company with several partners.
- Drawing-up a notarial contract according to your guidelines, properly prepared and tailored to your objectives.
- Ensuring that your Articles of Association contain all necessary elements.
- Make sure that the application is made in accordance with the requirements of the Commercial Companies Code. With the power of attorney you will have granted to us, on your behalf we will register your company at all Government institutions and offices required by law.
- Applying for company tax and identification numbers.
- Obtaining all necessary documents, permits and approvals.
- Dealing with bank formalities connected with setting up of the company bank account.
- Once completed the registration process, we will draw up all other corporate documents required by the Commercial Companies Code.

Free Support Services Included
When combined with the free and innovative Advocate Abroad support services you can be sure that you are obtaining completely transparent legal services from registered and regulated English-speaking lawyers abroad.These support services include:

Customer Reviews

I have been working with Francisco for over 2 years. He is easy to reach very informative in all issues related to taxes in Spain for a foreigner.
Francisco is very professional and knowledgeable.

Very pleasant person to deal with, managed to get a difficult house purchase sorted.

I am in Malaga and use your office in Zaragoza for my clients in that area.
They are very helpful and professional.

Francisco was extremely professional and answered our many questions promptly and clearly, both by phone and email. We feel very lucky to have had Francisco handle our Spanish Fiscal declaration.
The service was perfect, and we are very happy with the whole process.

Francisco was recommended to me by friends in Spain after they had a very positive experience with him. He was an excellent contact for me while I was in the process of buying a house in Spain.
It was an overwhelming experience buying from Canada, particularly because of the language barrier and the time difference, but Francisco did a fantastic job of explaining to me everything about the forms, taxes and the local processes.
He was helpful, friendly and informative. When I arrived in Spain to complete the purchase, I felt much more confident knowing that I had his advice and assistance, he even offered to help me fix a problem with my bank accounts when I didn't understand what was happening (language).
I would have no hesitation using his services again and highly recommend him to anyone in need of his assistance. I was 100% happy.

Francisco and Carmen did a great job handling my divorce. In this difficult time for me, they handled the issues with understanding and flexibility.
Francisco was very good in court and he could defend well against all the challenges made to the pre-nuptial contract my husband and I signed, so that it was upheld in full.

Francisco was extremely helpful, he couldn't have done more.

My lawyer Francisco was very helpful. He knew what information I needed to give him to acquire the documents I needed.
He was very responsive to my status requests and he sent me the documents quickly. I am extremely happy and grateful for his service.

I am very satisfied with the service provided by my lawyer.
He was extremely helpful and I would definitely use the same lawyer again in the future.

We contacted this law firm on several occasions with different questions (immigration, work contracts, rent of property, purchase of property) and they could always give us a thorough answer to our questions.
The lawyers provided us all necessary information and helped us to choose the best solution. They were very attentive and helpful. As we don’t speak Spanish, they accompanied us to all government offices.

Francisco did a great job of helping us through a process which required his diligence in order to be successful.
He worked hard on our behalf and we appreciated his determination.

Our lawyer Francisco was very helpful , he didn’t spare any effort in fulfilling his duties which helped us reach our goal.
We would definitely use his services again.

Customer Reviews

Inma was a 'Godsend' in moving us through the minefield that is the process of residency applications...mine as a European citizen was fast and very easy, but my wife's application as a UK citizen was complex & very precise.
However, with Inma's help & expertise it was completed. Inma is knowledgable, efficient, helpful, approachable, speaks perfect English (with a slight Scottish twang:-) and has a wonderful sense of humour. We cannot recommend her highly enough & we will use her for all of our legal needs in Spain. Thank-you Inma!

Inma helped me to buy a property in the Valencia region. I could not have had someone more trustworthy and helpful. Her English is totally fluent and she had no problem taking the time to read through all the documents and explain everything to me.
I had many questions as it was my first property purchase and she always took the time to explain. She double checked things that didn't seem right which ended up saving me a lot of money, extra work that she noticed and argued for me to save me money.
I am so grateful to her for making this process so much easier and having someone I could trust. I would highly recommend anyone buying in this area to work with her. :)

Thanks for your help!

I appreciated Inma's ability to explain and provide appropriate solutions.

Fast response, easy going, kind.

I have already referenced them to my friends. They listened, understood what I was asking for help with, were clear with feedback, answering all questions - being bilingual was very helpful to someone just learning the language - then gave me my options & to the point.
Very professional & approachable. They did what they said they would which inspired trust & reliability.

I have contacted and received legal assistance from Inma and her team on at least 3 occasions including property purchase, Residencia, and general legal advice.
She is very thorough and explains everything well. Probably the quickest responses I have ever had in Spain!
Highly recommended.
