LEGAL REQUIREMENTS FOR RESIDENCY IN COSTA RICA

Obtaining residency in Costa Rica, is not complicated, if you use a professional Immigration Attorney or Specialist. Do not try to do this on your own! Many attorneys will tell you that they can assist you with this process, and gladly take your initial deposit. Then they drop the ball completely and you are left hanging, wondering what happened. The process is difficult and needs someone who will follow up diligently with your specific file and situation. Many individuals call themselves “Pros”, but the reality is that there are very few who get the job done. I have worked with many different firms and can guide you in the right direction.

If you would like an introduction to a reliable and competent attorney or specialist, contact me directly and I will gladly make the introduction.
