Service: Assisted in obtaining Spanish nationality
The truth is that it was very positive- they helped me with my Spanish nationality and handled the entire process. We started there between 2018 and 2020, and everything took about two years. They were always very attentive, told me what I needed to do and how to do it, and every time I asked, they explained how the process was going. As for the price, I don’t have anything to compare it to, but for me it was quite reasonable — it was worth it and I felt very comfortable.

Service: For Bekham law documents
Marc and Steffy really know their stuff when it comes to tax processes. I had problems with my Bekham law certificate, and they resolved it quickly by going to the tax office themselves when we couldn't fix it online. I didn't even have to visit the tax office, which was a huge relief. I highly recommend them for their expertise and efficiency.

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.

Service: Legal assistance resolving inheritance case and court hearing preparation
I had a problem with an inheritance about five years ago. I had been with other lawyers and everything was pretty bad, and in the end I went with Yasir and he was able to solve the whole thing. He explains everything very well, answers quickly, took a lot of interest, and prepared me for a court hearing; the case was tangled and it took about eight months, but I felt calm and the price was good. Compared to others there is an abysmal difference, I trust him and I am even planning to consult him about selling and buying a property.
