Carlos Lorenzo Spanish J.D., LLM

A Licensed Spanish Attorney Helping Americans in Spain

My name is Carlos Lorenzo, and I am a licensed Spanish attorney with a professional and personal background that bridges Spain and the United States.

I have lived and worked across Spain as well as in the U.S., specifically in Oregon and Arkansas, where I gained first-hand experience working at an American law firm. This experience gave me a deep understanding of the U.S. legal system, American culture, and the practical expectations U.S. clients bring when seeking legal advice abroad.

Motivated by this transatlantic perspective, I pursued a Ph.D. in U.S. Constitutional Law, strengthening my expertise in U.S.–European legal relations and allowing me to approach cross-border legal matters with both academic rigor and real-world practicality.

I believe effective legal representation goes beyond technical knowledge—it requires cultural awareness, clear communication, and empathy. My goal is to ensure that American clients in Spain feel understood, informed, and confident at every step of the legal process.
