G o o g l e Review

I had a fairly complex matter that needed plenty of knowledge to be able to see the easiest way out. Francisco was prepared, explained very clearly the process which was best for me and also was friendly and made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend him.

Probate Law: Wills & Inheritance

3rd Party Review

Sabela was very helpful in helping me (someone who lives overseas) understand the complexities of Spanish inheritance law, tax and practice. She was responsive and spoke good English which really helped as my Spanish is not good. Would highly recommend Sabela.

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!
