In seeking my Spanish green card, Inma was very efficient, professional, and she reassured me time and time again when I had doubts regarding the process. As a foreigner with limited knowledge of the language, she was a breeze to deal with in English. All forms were submitted on time and I hardly had to do anything but trust her experience and guidance. I’m more than happy with the results.!

Why choose Advocate Abroad?

Director
When we set-up Advocate Abroad 14 years ago, getting legal services abroad was something of a lottery.
Clients faced a variety of problems from poor levels of English to questionable moral behaviour by some practitioners.
So we set-up Advocate Abroad to ensure standards by checking lawyers’ background, language levels, and competencies...
...and now, having handled over 40,000 enquiries, via hundreds of partners in 20 countries, we think we must be doing something right!
