Fernando

Madrid on Apr 2026

I worked with Cigarran this year, starting in January, on a private community issue with conflicting neighbors. They helped me with everything related to the legal framework - to understand it well, to know what my rights were, my obligations, what I could and what I couldn’t. Also with strategy and tactics, which for me was just as important or more important than the legal part, and her contribution there was very, very high. The outcome was happy and I’m still in contact, I would go to her again and I recommend it a lot.

Lisbon/Madrid on Apr 2026

I’ve been working with Maria Fernanda’s Cigarran office for many years on corporate legal issues, human resources and labor matters, immigration, and even accounting, both personally and for my business. They are a small office, very available, meticulous when they evaluate and work on a case, and they answer fast. Prices feel fair, sometimes even cheap for what they do, and I really value that they tell you at the beginning if something is outside their scope so you don’t waste time. I’m very satisfied and I recommend them without any problem.

Rohit

Barcelona on Apr 2026

I came to Spain about a year ago and the team at Cigarran, along with Maria Fernanda, helped me with tax registration, getting my social security registered, and my Beckham Law regime registration, which came very quickly. The whole thing was smooth and straightforward, and they were transparent about the charges, the timeframe, and the documents they needed. I hired them again to do the same for my wife and that also went really smooth, and they helped us resolve the tax registration stuff here in Spain; they were always on time and professional. Price felt fair to me, this is a costly thing in Spain, and I’m already thinking of hiring them to file my taxes for 2025.

Frequently Asked Questions

What expats want to know before hiring commercial lawyers in Madrid.

Are there English-speaking commercial lawyers in Madrid?
Yes, and more do as the expat community grows. The hard part is knowing who is reliable before you book, so every one we list is reviewed by other expats who have actually used them.
What should I check before hiring commercial lawyers in Madrid?
Read recent reviews, be clear about exactly what you need, and agree the scope and an estimate in writing before any work starts. For anything regulated, check they hold the right credentials for the job.
Are these lawyers properly registered in Madrid?
Yes. Practising lawyers must be registered, as colegiado with the local Colegio de Abogados in Spain. It is fine to ask, and a reputable firm will confirm it.
What should I avoid when hiring commercial lawyers in Madrid?
Avoid paying the full amount up front (a deposit can be fair), anyone who will not give a clear quote, and unusually cheap prices that get padded with extras later. And never use someone who cannot show the right certification.
How do I explain what I need if my Spanish is limited?
A photo, a short video or a written list does most of the talking, and the professionals we list are used to international clients. Booking an English-speaking one takes the stress out of it entirely.
How do you say commercial lawyers in Spanish?
In Spanish, commercial lawyers are usually called abogados mercantiles. That is the word to search for or to ask a neighbour, though many professionals here are used to the English term too.
How do I find commercial lawyers I can trust in Madrid?
Check the reviews and any credentials before you book. On Locallista the reviews are phone-verified and the ranking is based on real expat experience, not who paid the most.
