Hi Naomi, I assume you are the administrator. I tried twice to comply with your request and place Gabriel in your list of Buenos Aires attorneys. The problem I can put all the information in but since I don't have his address, the program will ... Read More

Yes, absolutely. The one we recommend is Gabriel Celano, web site http://www.celano.com.ar/. We have recommended him for the last four years and only get rave reviews. In fact, Gabriel also handled our own citizenship. And by the way, if you are new ... Read More


Healthcare in Argentina by Julien
Hi, how does the healthcare system work in Argentina ? Is it efficient ? What are the main differences between public and private sectors? Is it recommended to purchase private health insurance in Argentina? Thanks in advance for sharing ...

Rita, one more comment. I see someone told you you could rent in Palermo furnished for $1k per month. I pay half that in a neighborhood in Palermo that I love--for one bedroom but it isn't fancy at all though it's in a fancy and secure neighborhood. ... Read More

Rita, you do not want to buy now. Argentina has a crash (they call it a crises) about every 10 years. We all can tell that we are getting very near. You want to buy in the crises, not now. Plus, there is an advantage to renting. If you decide you ... Read More
