Barcelona, Sep 2026

I needed a legal opinion on an employment related matter, with a review of some documents and policies, and Alice was really well aware of that space. The experience was really, really good, the responses were very prompt, and they were very patient with all my questions. I had an in person meeting in the office, everything was clarified, and they helped me really understand my rights and the employment clauses. I also had a lot of follow up questions over the next few days, and they helped me with that too, although I did find it a bit on the pricey side.

I’ve worked with Sergi for Spanish tax preparation for the past three years as an expat. We do everything virtually with video and WhatsApp, and he’s been flexible, attentive, and open and honest, always willing to jump on a call to go deeper on my questions. He understands my specific situation and the tax regime that applies to me, and he feels like a local expert on the nuances of Spanish tax law for expats. Price felt fair, he was always professional and on time, and I’ve already recommended him to a bunch of other people.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Are there English-speaking immigration lawyers in Barcelona?
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 Barcelona?
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 Barcelona?
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 Barcelona?
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 Barcelona?
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.
