What My Clients Say
Obwohl Englisch auf beiden Seiten nicht die Muttersprache ist, hat Sie uns beim Immobilienkauf geduldig und umfassend
bei den Vertragsverhandlungen in sehr gutem Englisch unterstützt.
Dank ihrer Ergänzungen waren wir beim Kauf gut abgesichert und konnten auch danach schwierige Sachverhalte bewältigen, die durch Mängel seitens der Immobilienagentur entstanden waren.
Sie ist fachlich up-top-date, sehr kommunikativ und mitdenkend und hat uns auch außerhalb normaler Geschäftszeiten stets geduldig unterstützt.
Wir sind sehr froh Frau Palma als Anwältin zu haben und können sie besten Gewissens hundertprozentig weiterempfehlen.
