Hey Pebs,

Does this lawyer speak English? 

I know one but he's in San Ramon and that would in no way be convenient for her when purchasing in Talamanca.

I know a good one in San Ramon too but no English. Generally speaking you should use an attorney in the area you're buying imho. I think sometimes they have connections locally that can help you get something done if you need it.
And various municipalities have different laws/rules. For example San Jose's restrictions on building won't be the same as San Ramon's.

I guess I will stop trying to help people with good things  by offering to show them where my good lawer is,,,I make NO money for my help just to tell the admins,
I thought we were here to HELP eaxh other.
.BUt I hope I am allowed to warn people from a very crooked car dealer called "Chitos Autos n Belin .They really scammed me and I just found out two other  people I know ..they should be called Cheaters so be very careful  would stay away from that type of crooked deals..

If I'm not mistaken all you have to do is say "send me a PM" and then give the person your contact details in the PM vs putting it here on the forum for all to see.

Anyone with Attorney recommendations for the Pavones coastal area? Looking to close a real estate purchase as well as create a Corporation for the transaction?

Thanks in advance.

Surfdog..........Check out "Outliers",they are not cheap but have a good track record that is verifiable.My impression of 'Pavones',that it is very affordable.......for a good reason.You are smart,by knowing what an imperative it is to have your own legal consul.Pavones...what a history of people getting screwed over !

Edwinemora, yeah the Danny Fowler story is still in play. But hopefully a clean title means a clean title down there.

Mr. Adrian Fernandez has been a great lawyer for us. From residency to real estate to car buying. He is in the central valley. Highly recommend.

@cherylcov I would look at Forza legal. They are in nosara guanacaste and San Jose. We went through 3 lawyers until we found one that actually communicates, does the work and doesn’t just take the money and go dark.


good luck!
