Jonathan

Review of Cirillo Legal, Oct 2026

Cristina did a review of my digital nomad visa application before I submitted to the UGE, and she was thorough, helpful, and professional. She reviewed all of my documentation and provided me a helpful to-do list, and then helped me to ensure my follow-up submission had correct information. I'd highly recommend her to anyone seeking guidance around their digital nomad application and I would work with her again in a heartbeat.

Review of Maat Abogados, Jun 2025

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.

Review of Imont Legal & Taxes, Sep 2026

We used Alfonso when we were relocating from Germany to Madrid and needed help with the bureaucratic process. He helped us find lawyers for the house purchase, get our immigration status in line, request the NIE, and also with the Beckham Law and the special tax status. Communication was mostly by email and phone calls, with a couple of meetings in person in Spain, and he definitely met expectations. They were very kind, really lovely, and I felt it was fair value for the services they provided.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Are there English-speaking immigration 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 immigration 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 immigration 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 immigration lawyers in Spanish?
In Spanish, immigration lawyers are usually called abogados de inmigracion (extranjeria). 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 immigration 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.
