Service: Real estate consulting on specific issues
I consulted Aldo two or three times on specific issues relating to real estate, and each time he helped me relatively quickly and gave very good advice. He is knowledgeable, polite, and responsive, and the price felt like fair value for money. Every time he would let me know how long it was going to take - once he told me he didn’t have time until the week after, but he let me know. He even asked to meet in person and we went for a coffee the first time, which felt professional and helpful.

Service: Immigration law
I reached out for immigration law help. The whole call was basically us saying can you hear me and yes, I can hear you over and over. We finally heard each other and that was pretty much it.

Service: Provided multiple visa applications and immigration case handling
I hired Andrea for multiple visas - a highly qualified worker visa, a golden visa, and a dependent visa for my mother-in-law from Belarus. He created the case, developed the case, defended the case, pressured the authorities when they were slow, and everything got done the way he told us, faster than anybody that I know of. We mostly did everything online by email, phone or video, and he was always on time and meticulous with explanations and documents. Pricing felt very well priced - not the cheapest, not a ripoff - and after 22 years as an expat, Andrea is number one that I had and I really, really recommend him.

Service: Immigration legal guidance for pareja de hecho application
I hired Alice for immigration lawyer services to do the pareja de hecho, and I’m still at the start of my journey with them. She’s been extremely helpful, really responsive, and there to answer any questions, giving very clear guidance on the legal steps. I think it’ll take about six months and I haven’t paid yet, but so far the meetings have been smooth and professional. The price seems fair to me - another lawyer was a bit cheaper, but I felt this service was more professional.
