Services Sometimes it's so hard to get things done in Costa Rica. The paperwork "tramites" can turn into nightmares. We are experts at solving problems and pushing paperwork through the proper channels. Below we list just some of the ways we can help you. E-mail us today and give us the opportunity to assist you. Do you have a legal problem in Costa Rica? Whether or not you already have your own lawyer on the case, we may be able to help. We can work with our lawyers, or yours. We can track your case to make sure your lawyers are doing the best they can for you. We can obtain the case file, study it with our legal staff and determine a win/loss probability. We can then present you with a risk/reward analysis to let you decide whether or not to continue in court or settle. If there's anything you don't understand about your case or the legal process, we will gladly explain it to you in plain English. If an asset isn't properly registered in Costa Rica, it can be "lost" i.e. there may be no public record that the asset belongs to you. It may still legally belong to the person who sold it to you or it may be stolen and placed in the name of someone else. We have experience recovering such assets. Perhaps we can help you recover yours.
Set-up / Transfer / Register a Corporation or Small Business Are you starting or buying a business in Costa Rica? If so, you may find the "tramites", Costa Rican for red tape, a bit daunting. We can help you through the sales / startup process as well as the registration process. We'll help you get your company books set-up correctly and teach you how to properly use them. Or if you prefer, we'll maintain them. We'll also help you understand the tax process. And if your company has any specific needs, we can probably help you with those too.
Assist with Tax Authority Affairs It can be more difficult than you might think to pay your taxes in Costa Rica. There's several types of taxes, each with their own deadlines. Finding out the deadline dates alone can be an overwhelming task. And then, they often change with little notice. We keep on top of all of this. We will help you make sure you pay what you need to and when.
Interface and Bargain with Real Estate Brokers If you are buying property in Costa Rica you may not know whether a price is reasonable or not. And it's not uncommon for the price to be higher for foreigners. We can work with real estate brokers to make sure you receive the best price possible.
Manage the Sale, Purchase, or Transfer of a Property If you are buying property in Costa Rica, you may not be sure how to check whether the sellers actually have the legal right to sell the property. You may not know whether there are any concessions or other restrictions on your land. You don't want to buy a property that you're not allowed to build on. You want to be sure that your property is properly marked and that you're really receiving the entire property you're paying for. We'll do all the necessary research to make sure you get what you pay for.
Register and Protect a Property When you purchase a property, it must be registered correctly in the National Registry and in the municipality where it's located. This must be done correctly and error-free, or properties can be "lost." There are two ways they can be "lost"—the Nationality Registry loses track of your registration and thinks you don't own the property or a scam artist changes the property registration to his own name. We make sure this doesn't happen. We know the rules and how to play the game. We have successfully corrected property registration errors and "found" "lost" property. We can check whether your property is properly registered and if not, do so. If necessary, we can try to help you recover "lost" property. Additionally, we can help you give your property extra protection from shysters, and lawsuits, by creating a company that legally holds your property.
Act as Your Proxy or Representative in Negotiations If you're located outside of Costa Rica, it can be difficult, and costly, to arrive to appointments on short notice. Even if you are in Costa Rica, you're level of Spanish and lack of understanding of Costa Rican culture may make negotiating difficult. You can assign us to be your proxy or representative to act on your behalf in meetings and to file paperwork for you. We'll have your best interests in mind as we represent you. Please note that should you decide to do this, we will always contact you, explain the situation in layman's English, and get your written approval BEFORE any papers or contracts are signed.
