Welcome to Barrantes & Associates

Our Costa Rica law firm provides reliable advice and legal services to foreign visitors and investors in Costa Rica. We have very extensive knowledge about this area and we will provide personalized legal services that will make your business here in this country as safe and pleasant as possible.

Family Law
Family law cases in Costa Rica involve any combination of family issues including divorce, separation, child custody, support, adoption and many other issues that concern marriage & parenthood. Costa Rica's family and domestic violence laws are quite stern and it is very important that you retain the services of a Costa Rica Family Lawyer if you wish to be successful in court.

Corporate Law
When conducting business in Costa Rica, it is generally advised that you register your business locally through a Costa Rica Corporate Lawyer. Your registered business could be a Corporation, a Limited Liability Company, a Limited Partnership or a General Partnership. There are also legal ways of existing businesses doing business in Costa Rica without forming another business entity in This Country.

Real Estate Law
Costa Rica is an ideal real estate investment because there is little restriction on foreigners owning land here. Although foreigner property owners enjoy the same rights as native Costa Ricans, there are some restrictions on land use. So, it is very important for foreign investors to retain the services of a Costa Rica Real Estate Lawyer to advise you during the property purchase.

Escrow and Closing Services
Escrow and Closing Services in Costa Rica are provided only by legally authorized entities. Barrantes & Associates will be able to help you open an escrow account here in the country and guide you through the process of property purchase all the way through closing.

Immigration Law
In Costa Rica there are several types of residency including pension based, investment income based, and residency by marriage. Each type of residency has its own requirements and stipulations. Attempting to gain residential status in the country without the services of a Costa Rica Immigration Lawyer will prove to be a difficult task.

The road of life has many turns, and Barrantes & Associates has the experience to offer the legal, administrative, and specific advice you require as a foreign visitor or investor here in Costa Rica. Permit Barrantes & Associates to be your hired administrative manager, while you focus on productivity, profits and life.

We will be glad to provide you further information and advice on these and other legal matters.
Thank you for visiting our site and I look forward to personally meeting with you.

Sincerely,

Giovanna Barrantes Esquivel
