We hired David and his team when we moved to Barcelona to help us with our taxes in Spain, and they’ve done our taxes every year since 2023. They’re very thorough, on top of things, give us a heads up about stuff, and with the digital certificate they handle whatever we need done, explained properly and clearly. Communication is good, though sometimes the speed at which they respond could be improved. Price felt fair and they’re professional and respectful.

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.

I started working with David and his team a little over three and a half years ago when we were buying an apartment in Barcelona as a company, and they helped with setting up the company in Spain and the whole purchase process. Since then they’ve been our go-to lawyers for anything legal, including paying our taxes there and handling my legal stuff and my husband’s, and they always manage calls around a 7-hour time difference with no problem. Communication and professionalism have been great and we’ve never had an issue. Prices feel worth what you pay - not super expensive - and I’d recommend them to anyone looking for legal counsel in Barcelona.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Are there English-speaking family 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 family 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 family 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 family lawyers in Spanish?
In Spanish, family lawyers are usually called abogados de familia. 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 family 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.
