GB Abogados Reviews 

Monica was great for us would highly recommend

Just want to say how helpful, Matt and the team at GB ABogados were in dealing with my situation in Spain, first class service can’t thank them enough for everything they’ve done very efficient service, every time i phoned was put straight through to Matt who sorted everything out, thanks again, Brendan.

Quick service with great communication throughout the whole process. Highly recommend.

Just want to say a massive thank you to your team for being able to help my friend and I out, of an awful ordeal. In which, to cut a long story short were wrongly accused and made to pay a lot in fines each. However thanks to your help and I must say special mention to Mónica Otero Carretero who dealt with our case. She was amazing from the very beginning. It was so hard knowing which company to trust, but I'm so glad to have come across this company. Monica was quick to reply to emails, always really helpful and guided us through every little moment. We will always be so happy for all that you did and you're a huge asset to your company, in which they should be very gratious.
Please dont ever hesitate to use this company and if in doubt ask for Monica.

We used this company for a Power of Attorney for my Sister to enable me to conduct legal business in Spain which my Sister was unable to accompany me to. Matt was extremely efficient - we did not need to meet face to face and he organised a local Notary to meet my Sister to finalise the POA. The whole process was half the price of another company we contacted - and a lot simpler. Would highly recommend.

I used Dulce and it was a complete
waste of money. I wish I had read the other bad reviews about her and the company first. She sent a letter out on my behalf before I saw and agreed it and it was completely incorrect. She included a threatening paragraph in the letter which I hadn’t asked for.
I asked Dulce for feedback she got to the letter and she said she would let me know but that didn’t happen. When I told her and her colleague Matt that I wasn’t happy they completely blocked me. Basically using Dulce for what should have been to resolve a simple situation was a complete waste of time and money.

Made a stressful situation easier for us,
Monica was very helpful throughout keeping us informed along the way up until the trial

I would recommend, thank you again

Mónica was very supportive throughout the whole process. She guided us through a difficult emotional case, helping at each stage. All questions were answered very promptly and thoroughly. The fact that her English is very good as well was extremely useful. I would highly recommend her services. Thank you!

As first time property buyers in Spain we found the package/services from GB great value for money. All the formalities are taken care of. Service was efficient and professional. Monica, Dulce and Matt handled the purchase for us and we found them to be very approachable, helpful and friendly. We would recommend to anyone hoping to buy a holiday home just like us.

Very thankful for the excellent and professional work carried out by Monica and Matt on my court case. Would highly recommend.

GB Abogados provide a brilliant professional service, first class, and helpful in all aspects and highly recommended to anyone requiring legal services in Spain.
Thanks Mónica for your great service.

Monica was very helpful and translated every thing to me. She answered me within a few hours and always reassured me. Monica also told me what to expect and put my mind at rest. If ever need lawyer will definitely use Monica again. But hopefully it won't come to that. Thanks monica

I dealt with Monica who I found very helpful and professional. Any questions were dealt with thoroughly and most importantly quickly.
Would highly recommend.

I have had an excellent experience with Gascon Bernabeu Law firm, when trying to negotiate both the UK and Spanish property and tax law.
They were very helpful from the start giving me a good understanding of what my options were and what costs would be from them and also in terms of property taxes on a transfer of ownership of a Spanish property between two parties in the UK one of which was unable to travel. While I would not describe the services as cheap, they were in line with other legal services I have used before and extremely good value for money and they kept us informed at each stage of the process while we waited for the Spanish government processes that can take quite some time.
I would highly recommend this company if you are in need of similar services as they have been a pleasure to work with.

I paid 50% up front for GB Abogados to act on my behalf for my house sale in Spain and then paid the final 50% when the notary appointment was made. It then transpired that there was no contract ready, neither had GB Abogados written a contract or checked a contract. They didn’t tell me this and I only found out that I should not fly to spain the next day because the sellers agents informed me. I had a massive argument with Dulce on the phone the morning we were due to fly to sign the following day. She sent me a draft contract later that day for me to read through which had lots of basic mistakes in it that were visible to anyone who has been to school. I have begged and begged her for a proof read contract which has never appeared and now she has stopped replying to my emails. I haven’t seen copies of any of the work she did relating to my sale and there is still work to be done regarding taxes and mortgage. The notary appointment was in November and I now haven’t heard from her for months. I am only writing this now because my bank have refused to help get my money back and I can’t afford another lawyer to pursue making a formal complaint about GB Abogados in Spain. All I want is for the work to be completed. Dulce won’t even give me the lawyer number of the lawyer that did the initial work when I first employed GB Abogados which is actually illegal in Spain. If anyone wants to see copies of the emails between myself and Dulce before giving them any of your money please feel free to find me on Facebook.

Matt's response and service was very quick. He put me in touch with a notary, which facilitated me completing the organisation of a power of attorney (the legalisation, as well as the apostille) in a week.

*****************

La atención y servicio de Matt era muy rápido. Me puso en contacto con un notario, lo cual facilitó en terminar el trámite de organizar un poder (tanto la legalización como apostillarlo) en una semana.

Very efficient in helping me acquire my NIE from uk prior to my property search in Spain
Answered all question & emails promptly
Will use them again

friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. we were liaising with Lisa who was truly amazing

We were blessed to have approached this excellent team at Gason Bernabeu team of professionals
From day one they have been committed and professional in all dealing in relation to my overseas matter.
Its wonderful that they are also bi-lingual and they can communicate with me in my own language and in Spanish for the Spanish courts.
The team are professional and provide clear and language friendly advice They respond quickly to any questions raised and I am glad to be a client under their professional umbrella
I am delighted to give Gascon Bernabeu this review and a very big thank you to the excellent team

The company Unique Selling Point is an empty promise. I have received two pieces of very important legal paperwork concerning court proceedings both of which have not been translated accurately into English. When I challenged them about this I was told that the English version is just for information only and should not be taken into account as a legal document. So basically, their English cannot be relied upon and I will now need to employ the services of a Spanish translator if I am to understand the legal implications of any of the documentation sent through. So, basically what is the point? Their claim to be a 'multi-lingual' legal service is flawed if the translation into your language cannot be relied upon.

I've also been asking for further clarification on specific legal points of great importance, so far....... silence.

In response to GB Abogados below:

I never claimed to be your client. Before I wrote the review I checked the criteria required from TrustPilot to be able to write a review and I do meet their requirements. And everything I have written is a completely accurate representation of my experiences of your company. The questions I have asked do not require intervention from my legal representative in Spain and really only require a simple 'yes or no'. And I would rather you spent time answering my questions, the significance of which I have explained, that I have now asked twice regarding the legal validity of the content of a letter that was sent on your headed paper, than you spending time responding to reviews on TrustPilot.

Reply (2):

I'm not asking for legal advice, I'm asking for clarification of the original author of a letter sent to me on your headed paper. I don't need a legal representative in Spain, as explained, this is an issue relating to a legal situation in the UK. Again, a simple answer to a simple question. Can't be that hard surely?
