Dedicated Legal and Administration Services

Germán Osorio has more than 10 years professional experience with the foreign community in the city of Oaxaca, Mexico. Known as Mr. Fixit by the expatriate community, his track record is excellent in dealing with the bureaucracy that often arises in the Mexican governmental system. Other advantages are:

  • he is punctual, reliable and hard-working.
  • he speaks fluent English and gives good answers to all your questions.
  • he does all the paperwork, makes all the payments and visits the government offices on your behalf.
  • he is on your side and saves you from wasting time, waiting... returning... waiting... and so on...

After being granted power of attorney, Germán acts in your stead allowing nearly all of the legal work, after the fingerprinting's done, to be accomplished even long-distance. Time, travel, sanity, and even setting foot in a government office can take its toll upon even the most determined of us, thus making a small investment in DHL, Mexpost and legal fees extremely worthwhile. From experience, it can work out cheaper in the long run to use Mexican immigration counsel.
