Daniel Tostado

About the Advisor

A Transatlantic Foundation in Law, Policy, and French Legal Culture

I am a French immigration lawyer at Tostado Avocats, based in France and focused on helping Americans relocate, obtain long-stay visas, and navigate the French immigration system from start to finish.

My background spans American law and French legal practice. I hold a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Notre Dame, a Master of Public Policy from Harvard Kennedy School, a JD from Georgetown Law, and a Master in French Law from Sciences Po Paris. That last degree not only rounded out my credentials, but put me inside the French legal system at a technical level few American attorneys reach.

I have also gone through the French immigration process personally. I know what a visa renewal deadline feels like, what French bureaucracy demands, and where things go wrong. That experience directly shapes how I work with clients.

I've been featured in CNN, The Local, and Relocate.
