Hi

We have used Juan Carlos (this is his web site) http://www.spanishsolicitors.com since 2009 for everything, and they now have a local office in Quesada. If you want to email Juan Carlos directly here is his email address:

Juan Carlos Marhuenda <[email protected]>

All fluent in English.


We bank with Sabadell - which is one of the banks that dont charge you for using other ATM, not sure about some of the other banks.
Their online system is very easy to use as well.

Cheers

Hi there. Great to hear that you are coming to join us in sunny Spain!
I've got accounts with Solbank who are good and quite helpful, but my business accounts are with Sven and his excellent team at La Caixa (the old Barclay's office) at the entrance to Quesada.
They're great and can't do enough for me whenever I need their help, so highly recommended.
As for a lawyer, I've been with Silvia Galve for 15 years and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has her own company on the main street in Benijofar SGM Abogados and a website www.sgmlegalspain.com. I honestly cannot tell you how many times she has helped me, gone way beyond the that expected and her staff are fantastic. There's lots of recommendation on here and elsewhere for SGM and other lawyers, so it's best to go meet a few and judge for yourself. I can guarantee with SGM you won't be disappoionted.
Good luck with everything :)

I completely agree with newchocs. I also have been using the services of SGM for many years and have always been extremely happy and had fabulous service. I also bank work Sabadell and have been happy with them. Good luck and welcome to Spain.

Sorry to hear about the property jimrc. There are a few estate agencies recommended on this forum, so why not be proactive and send them all an email telling them what you want exactly and see what they come back with? Let them do the hard work for you lol.. Sorry again, but I'm sure you'll find something great soon..

I'm very sorry to hear you've lost your property. I'm sure there are plenty more too choose from. Have a chat with Spanish Life Properties. They're located just behind the Galp petrol station in Quesada. Good luck.
