Spain Legal Services forForeigners: ImmigrationLawyer in Malaga

Our fees are fixed and published on every service page, from 80 euros for empadronamiento support up to about 1,800 euros minimum for full property purchase representation. Government tasas are always small and separate, and you get a written quote before anything is billed.

A gestor manages paperwork and filings but cannot represent you in court or give binding legal advice. Raquel Cobos is an abogada colegiada, a registered lawyer, so she can also appeal a denial, defend your case if a problem comes up, and take legal responsibility for the advice she gives you.

Yes. Many clients start with a video call from abroad, send documents electronically, and grant power of attorney so we can begin filing before they land, which is common for the non-lucrative visa, digital nomad visa, and property purchases.

It depends on your income source, nationality, family situation, and whether you are already in Spain. Retirees and remote workers usually look at the non-lucrative or digital nomad visa, people already here without papers usually look at arraigo, and the free 10-minute call is built to point you to the right one quickly.

Royal Decree 316/2026 opened a time-limited extraordinary regularization window for foreigners already living in Spain without valid papers, requiring clean criminal record certificates from Spain, your country of origin, and every country you lived in over the last 5 years.
