Your Trusted Legal Partner in Spain

What an amazing law firm, and I am incredibly grateful for all the help I received from Laura and the entire team at CS Abogados. I can wholeheartedly recommend them! From the very first contact, I felt taken seriously, well supported and extremely well guided throughout the process. Buying a house in another country is exciting, but it can also be quite stressful and there is a lot involved. Laura explained everything very clearly throughout the entire process: what was happening, which documents were important and what I needed to pay attention to. She was critical when necessary, really thought along with me and always made sure my interests were properly protected. What I appreciated most was her availability and genuine involvement. Whenever I had questions or doubts, she responded quickly and always took the time to explain everything clearly. She was always there for me, and I truly felt that she was standing by my side and thinking things through with me. Thanks to Laura, despite all the stress that comes with buying a property abroad, I always felt confident that the legal side of everything was being handled properly. She is professional, knowledgeable and honest, while at the same time being incredibly responsive, involved and personal in her communication. That combination made the whole experience so much easier. I would recommend Laura and CS Abogados without any hesitation to anyone looking to buy a property in Spain. I am incredibly grateful to her and the entire team for all their help and guidance. If I ever need legal assistance in Spain again in the future, I know exactly who I will turn to.

A big thank you to Laura and the team for all their help with the purchase of our first home in Spain. Laura has been friendly, professional and very supportive throughout the whole process. There were several curveballs along the way, which at times had us completely freaking out, but Laura remained calm, patient and supportive throughout. She was always approachable answered our many questions and followed things up when needed. Her reassurances and support really helped us navigate what was, for several reasons, a particularly stressful process. We are very grateful to Laura for all her help and patience and would happily recommend her. Thank you for helping us finally get the keys to our new home.

We entrusted CS with the complete legal processing of our property purchase. Communication was excellent from day one until the notarization of the contract. All of this was even conducted in our native German language; for this, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to Ms. Téllez. We felt very well taken care of at every stage of the purchase process. A fantastic team at CS, especially in collaboration with Yvonne Properties. We would use them again without hesitation.

My wife and I are very pleased with the services we recived from Carmen and her assistant Laura who navigated a complex purchase extremely well. The property papers were not in order among other complications. They have managed to sort out all the legalities for which we are very grateful. They were responsive, professional and courteous through out the process. We are very pleased to have dealt with the team and will do in the future. We highly recommend using CS Lawyers.

We were extremely happy and impressed by the service we received from CS Lawyers when we recently sold our property in Spain. Our estate agent recommended Carmen and we met her at the Torre del Mar office. The sales process in Spain was explained clearly and the expenses and liabilities were fully detailed. Due to illness we needed to get back to the UK as soon as possible and Carmen managed to move everything forward very quickly and efficiently. We gave her Power of Attorney in order to close the bank account and settle outstanding utility bills to finalise the whole procedure. What was potentially a difficult and stressful procedure went off perfectly and we would certainly recommend CS Lawyers to anyone buying or selling in the area.

After researching the Torrox market, we chose CS Abogados—and it was the best decision we could have made. Years ago, our first Spanish house purchase was marred by a lazy, corner-cutting lawyer. We love Spain, but the bureaucracy can be painstakingly brutal, so this time we knew we had to get it right. And we did. From our very first meeting with Carmen, the proprietor, in her bright, modern Torrox Costa office, it was obvious this would be a completely different experience. CS Abogados are property transaction specialists—unlike general firms, they live and breathe property sales and purchases. That expertise shone through. We received a clear, written quote upfront, and their service never once wavered, nor charges varied. Carmen then introduced us to her wonderful assistant, Lucia. Lucia is so calm, professional, and unfailingly polite, combined with perfectly fluent English. Lucia kept communication crystal-clear throughout, so we were never, ever left wondering what was happening. I’ll admit we pushed for speed, after being burned by our previous lawyer - who had controlled everything and dragged things out to suit his agenda. This time I was determined to stay locked-in and on top of the proces. However, with Lucia, I didn’t need to worry. She was always ahead of the game - as if she read my mind. The result? We instructed Carmen on 19/6/25 and completed our purchase on 3/7/25. Ten working days. That simply wouldn’t have been possible without Lucia’s efficiency and the team’s outstanding communication. They even handled all the supplier paperwork (electric, water, IBI, community charges etc), leaving us free to settle straight into our new home. In short, what I once dreaded turned into a seamless experience. Our extensive research paid off—we 100% made the right choice. Huge thanks to Carmen, Lucia, and the whole team!

We bought an apartment in the province of Málaga and received excellent support from the lawyer Carmen Silvia and especially her colleague Patricia. From the purchase contract to checking possible encumbrances on the property, the notary appointment, entry in the land register and the re-registration of utilities - everything went smoothly and professionally. We would particularly like to emphasize the great commitment of Patricia, who was available at any time and took great care of all of our concerns - and all of this in German! You couldn't ask for better legal support when buying property in Spain - and at a really fair price. Clear recommendation!

I am so happy with the legal support I received during my apartment purchase. The lawyer was responsive, knowledgeable, and made the entire process incredibly smooth. Everything was taken care of efficiently, and I felt completely at ease throughout. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for reliable and expert legal assistance!

I would definitely recommend instructing Carmen Silvia of CS Lawyers to act on your behalf in buying or selling a property. Carmen Silvia helped me to buy and sell my property. I fully trust her knowledge and judgement and dedication in checking all the legal documention so feel totally confident in her abilities. Patricia, her secretary, is kind, caring and patient and very efficient in her job. I have total confidence in her too.

There are very few lawyers I would recommend in Spain. That said I highly recommend CS Lawyers. Carmen Sylvia specialises in property and conveyancing and is extremely professional in her field. She is knowledgeable, patient, kind and extremely professional as are her staff, especially Patricia. I have used CS Lawyers twice now and am extremely happy with with all that has been done for me. Thank you Carmen Sylvia.
