When our clients begin their journey towards obtaining Spanish nationality by residence with ARC Legal, one of the most common doubts arises from previous unsatisfactory experiences. Recently, a client asked us: “A relative who handled the process on their own received a requirement notice and is experiencing significant delays. I want to ensure that my application is processed quickly and accurately. Will it be faster if we submit it through a lawyer?”
At our firm, as registered lawyers with ICAM, we are part of the agreement with the Ministry of Justice that allows us to submit applications through the platform enabled by RedAbogacía. Therefore, all the applications we handle are processed through this platform. While submission via this platform does NOT guarantee that nationality will be granted, there are clear advantages to choosing this route:
- Security and efficiency in document review: Applications are reviewed by both the lawyer and the Bar Association’s administrative officer. Thanks to multiple reviews, this method minimizes errors and ensures that each application meets legal requirements before being submitted to the Ministry.
- Speed in managing and responding to requirements: In the event of requirements from the Ministry, the process is more agile and efficient due to a direct communication channel between the Ministry of Justice and the Bar Associations adhering to the agreement. This ensures that requirements are resolved promptly and that clients receive swift and efficient service.
- Up-to-date Ministry criteria: Representatives from the Ministry and the Bar Association hold regular meetings where they discuss new submission criteria, validate required documentation, and analyze specific cases with uncertainties to establish common guidelines. This ensures that submission procedures are always up-to-date and aligned with the latest legal regulations and requirements, offering lawyers and clients greater peace of mind and confidence in the management of their applications.
However, we always explain to our clients that submitting nationality applications through this platform does not guarantee shorter processing times or faster review by the Ministry.
At ARC Legal, all applications are submitted through this platform because it offers a balance of security, efficiency, and transparency. We ensure that clients benefit from these advantages and enjoy a smooth and trouble-free process. Additionally, from our firm, we always provide the client with a copy of the Certificate of Collegiate Review along with a copy of the document confirming the submission of the Spanish nationality application to the registry. In this way, we ensure that the client benefits not only from a transparent and seamless process but also from constant updates thanks to the direct communication facilitated by this tool.
If you are looking for a secure, efficient solution backed by professionals to process your Spanish nationality by residence, the system enabled by RedAbogacia and the Bar Associations is an ideal option. At ARC Legal, we are committed to offering you the best service, tailored to your needs and with the utmost professionalism.
