Why choose Strong Abogados to do my accounting in Spain?
- By having accountants, a corporate/tax lawyer, and a payroll specialist in the same firm, your business needs are covered, and information passes between them without requiring your intervention.
- Our accountants all have Spanish degrees in accounting and years of work experience.
- We are certified by the tax authorities and by the social security office to send all documents electronically, cutting down on time, costs, and the chances of papers getting lost.
- It's more efficient to have both the establishment of the company and accounting for the company done by the same firm. You won't get caught with two providers telling you some task is the responsibility of the other.
- We are members of the Bar Association of Barcelona (Ilustre Colegio de Abogados de Barcelona) and the Association of Accounting and Tax Experts of Spain (AECE). You as a client can ask for referrals and complaints about us in both institutions.
