Why is it important to hire a lawyer that speaks your language?

We can imagine that the last thing you will want to encounter is important legal negotiations with someone who doesn’t understand your native language. After all, it is essential that during this process you are aware of exactly what is going on, and the other parties are clear about your point of view.

This is why many foreign nationals entrust a team of lawyers that speak their language, to make sure that they thoroughly understand what is happening, as well as making their point known in a way that everyone can understand.

This is why Manzanares Lawyers are popular with many nationals in Europe as well as Chinese nationals that need help in translating to their language. This blog post highlights why trusting a lawyer that speaks your native language is so important…

Peace of mind

We understand that it can be a stressful time when dealing with Spanish law even if you’re a Spanish speaking resident, so we know how difficult it can be to try to sort out legalities with people that don’t speak your language! Often this can put people off trying to reach a full agreement that they are happy with, as sometimes they feel it is far hassle to make the process as short as possible.

This may seem like you’ve dodged a bullet at the time, but it can have serious complications further down the line if you have not fully understood any agreements you have made. With our English speaking lawyers in Spain, we can assure you that you will leave discussions feeling confident rather than confused.

A smooth process

At Manzanares Lawyers, we are committed to giving you the best chance of achieving the outcome you would like. This means that we will do everything we can to make sure that the process is done in a manner which is efficient, yet correct, so you can reach the ideal solution in the quickest time possible.

We understand that you don’t want to spend much time and effort bogged down in legal procedures, especially if you are trying to achieve your dream move to Spain. This is why you can trust the team at Manzanares Lawyers to do the hard work and communicate in Spanish on your behalf to get your point across clearly.

An ideal middleman

Who would you rather trust than Manzanares Lawyers?

We are one of the solicitors in Spain that specialise in dealing with non-residents from countries around the world, as they look to move to our wonderful country.
