Corporate Assistance

We provide advice that matters, fewer words, more work. Always committed to excellence.

Why to have business activity in Spain?

Along with the monetary and policy-based incentives to open a startup in the country, Spain also has two massive markets that are primed and proven to achieve success for companies. According to EU Startups, Barcelona is ranked as the fifth largest startup hub in Europe. Madrid is not far behind as the seventh best on the list. These locations are critical bases for startup success, but also, due to the RENACE program, startups are able to enlist workers from other areas of Spain that may be better specialized for the work they need to be done without having to leave the hubs of Barcelona and Madrid.

Lexidy Law Boutique supported us on our recent home purchase in Portugal. It was a long process, but our lawyer, Pedro Saldahna was with us every step of the way. He guided us through the process and even helped with our builder, our estate agent and our mortgage company. The entire Lexidy team has been super supportive throughout the whole process. Highly recommend!

I'm so over this crowd. Paid a huge deposit 2 YEARS AGO just to be passed from pillar to post. I'm now on lawyer number 5 - all the others left the company - go figure. I'm moving on to a different firm and will be requesting a refund. Don't waste your time and money like I did. I agree with other reviews that the positives are probably sponsored

Lexidy's first submission on my behalf cost 400+VAT. For up to two years, I thought everything was fine. Until I received a notice from the Spanish tax authorities asking for official receipts and translations which were quoted at over 4000 euros. The submission was rejected and my tax liability was re-calculated making me owe thousands..During the process, there was no personal consultation, I had to edit and make several corrections, documents for the wrong year were submitted, the draft cover letter addressed me as a female.A attention to detail and quality control does not exist. I was moved from one advisor to the next and eventually left on my own with Spanish Tax Authorities.Had they given me proper tax advice like I paid them for, I would have been informed as to exactly what documents I should gather and translate for this process. Lack of clarity and communication is evident in the pathetic email chain with this company.They called with an urgent request for an additional 800+VAT and stated that if I did not immediately pay they would not support me any further when the issues has not been brought to resolution at all. How am I to trust this company and pay them another penny when I have been provided with a lack of competence and accountability.

We contacted Lexidy Law boutique when we recently moved from Cyprus to open a new chapter in our lives to move into a house in Brittany that we had bought 12 years previously. We had underestimated the twists and turns involved in obtaining residency in France - so we contacted Lexidy Law Boutique and were assigned Eleonore, an immigration lawyer well acquainted with French immigration laws. From the very beginning we realised she was determined that we should have a successful outcome and she guided us expertly to avoid all the pitfalls in the process of applying for residency. She even accompanied us to the prefecture and ensured that everything went smoothly - without her presence we might well have not succeeded.We thank and highly recommend Eleonore and Lexidy Law Boutique.

The Lexidy team is uniquely positioned to provide pan-European business and tax advisory services; what would be complex or impossible for a country-specific advisor is straightforward for Lexidy. They answered in days what would take weeks for other firms.

Lexidy has been a lifesaver. The entire team has helped us so much on different matters both personal and corporate. Isabel in correcting an error by a previous accountant that was costing us an extra €1000 every month in social security payments! Jose with various matters and tax advice. Diego in helping us get documents notarized in Valencia even though he is based in Madrid. I cannot recommend them enough!

Update: While all of the initial responses were pretty quick, they started getting busy, so I had to constantly follow up. We have since sought assistance elsewhere.My husband and I plan to move from the USA to Porto, Portugal in the spring/early summer of 2023. We didn't know where to start or what to expect. I searched online and found Lexidy Law Boutique. Their website is intuitive, informative and inviting. I emailed the office and Lidiane responded within a few hours. Based on the information in my email, she emailed us appropriate information on our situation. She was very professional and offered to set up a web call if we wanted to. We ended up having our web call today and will be starting our journey of becoming Portuguese citizens. She informed us of the first steps, all of the documentation we need and what the law firm can do for us. Right after our call, she emailed us detailed information regarding pricing and what is entailed in that pricing. So far, the beginning of our journey is a positive one.

I contacted this company regarding a Labour dispute with a former employer. I quickly got an honest response that according to Spanish Labour laws, nothing could really be done anymore. Impressed with their swift, direct and honest opinion, I explained this was a very unusual case and would like to hire their services. Again I got a swift and direct answer that they did not deal with those kind of cases. Rather than milking a client, they showed admirable integrity by turning down the case…. a rare quality these days. My compliments.
