    “From start to finish Johanna's service has been amazing. She has guided us along the way and is always available to answer our questions. She is the most professional lawyer I have ever dealt with. I have sent her many clients who have been extremely happy with her services. I will always recommend Johanna.”

    “Since our first contact in 2014, to active pursuit of temporary residence beginning December 2020, then permanent residence, finally to citizenship that was received in March 2026 - the journey has been filled with advice, updates and questions answered, reassurances and encouragement. Thank you is not adequate but Thank You!!!”

    “I strongly recommend this attorney for anyone seeking assistance in all matters involved in settling in Costa Rica. Ms. Alvarez is particularly helpful to those of us who are seniors and lack fluency in the Spanish language. Her English is excellent!”

    “I highly recommend CRIE for all your immigration needs to Costa Rica. My wife and I has been working with Johanna for last couple years and she provided excellent service with best results. We have just made our move to Costa Rica from Canada. Johanna is very experienced and trustworthy.”
