What you need to know about keeping your Golden Visa in Spain with property purchase

Golden Visa in Spain has ended

KLEV&VERA International Law Firm
How to Get a Golden Visa Spain - KLEV&VERA International Law Firm

What our clients are saying

My wife and I are Americans that had visited Barcelona many times before deciding to live there. Our method of gaining residency was the "Golden Visa". Upon purchasing our property and returning to the United States to prepare for the move, we retained an immigration lawyer located in Barcelona to guide us through the process. We knew our biggest challenge would be gaining residency for my wife's 84-year old mother. When our immigration lawyer informed us that we should rethink our plans if our dream of moving to Barcelona was dependent upon gaining residency for my mother-in-law, we decided we needed an immigration lawyer that felt they could get the job done. We contacted the firm of Klev & Vera...which proved to be the best move we could have ever made. Working primarily with managing partner Anna Klevtsova, we were provided guidance and advice far surpassing that from our first lawyer. Anna and her team not only made the whole immigration process painless and simple, but provided a solid strategy on how we could gain residency for my mother-in-law as a dependent...a strategy that proved to be successful. The bottom line is that Klev & Vera provided step-by-step instructions on what we needed to do and what documents we needed to provide...and then proceeded to perform the laborious tasks that would have caused us much frustration and stress had we chosen to undertake them ourselves. They were very responsive to any questions we had and "held our hand" from the beginning of the process to the very end. And added bonus...there were no language communication issues. Those we dealt with at the firm were very fluent in English. We could not have been more impressed with this firm and highly recommend you contact Klev & Vera should you wish to move to Spain. You will find that allowing them to manage this exhaustive process for you will be well worth it for your peace of mind.
Klev&Vera is one of the greatest finds for our property purchase and golden visa projects in Spain. Having this reliable law firm headed by Anna as our legal consultant made our experience a smooth and enjoyable one. Her team was with us throughout our journey, making sure all tasks were accomplished on time and to our satisfaction. Highly recommended.
Klev&Vera, your English speaking lawyers in Spain.
