MG International Mobility - Legal Immigration Services

What MG International Mobility - Legal Immigration Services does

MG International Mobility is a Madrid-based boutique legal services firm specializing in Spanish immigration and international mobility law, founded in 2017 (firmographics indicate 2013). The firm is led by Immigration Partners Ianire Gardeazabal (formerly of EY Abogados' migration practice, 12+ years in the sector) and Danthe Menes (Doctor in Law and Political Sciences from Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, with prior roles at the Spanish Ministry of Labor and Immigration and Sagardoy Abogados), alongside a Global Mobility Specialist. The firm serves corporate clients relocating employees to Spain, highly qualified professionals seeking EU Blue Cards and intra-company transfers, individual clients pursuing Golden Visa, non-lucrative residence, and family reunification, as well as international students.

The core service portfolio spans Inmigración Corporativa (corporate immigration), general immigration services for individuals and students, the Residencia por Inversión (Golden Visa) and Residencia no Lucrativa programs, highly qualified professional permits, intra-company transfer authorizations under Article 73 of Law 14/2013, and labor displacement communications under Law 45/1999. Supporting services include international tax advisory (Beckham Law regime, double taxation treaties), social security coordination, S.L. company formation, and end-to-end relocation assistance (housing, schools, banking). US mobility services — covering EB-5 investor visas and a range of non-immigrant visa categories — are delivered through a partner US law firm, extending the firm's cross-border footprint.

The business operates on a professional-services, fee-for-service basis with quote-based pricing, multi-year engagement cadences, and a high-touch delivery model combining in-office consultations at the Salamanca district headquarters with remote phone and video consultations. Go-to-market relies on direct enterprise sales, content marketing through a bilingual blog and active presence on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter/X, and Instagram, SEO targeting immigration-law keywords, and thought-leadership lectures at universities and business schools. The firm is a member of EuRA (European Relocation Association) since 2022 and received the "Best Corporate Immigration Services Provider 2023 – Spain" award from Acquisition International. The firm is privately held, bootstrapped, with 11 employees and no external funding.

Others

• Crown Relocations: Crown Relocations is a global mobility company offering immigration coordination alongside moving and destination services in Spain — competing for the same corporate mobility RFPs where immigration is bundled with relocation support.
• Santa Fe Relocations: Santa Fe is a global relocation services company with a strong presence in Spain that bundles immigration support with destination services — a complementary (and occasionally competing) provider for corporate mobility buyers evaluating bundled relocation mandates.
• Cartus: Cartus is a major global relocation and mobility services provider whose Spain operations include immigration coordination — a peer in the broader mobility ecosystem where immigration is one component of the managed service offering.

Broad incumbents

• Berry Appleman & Leiden (BAL): BAL is a top-tier global immigration law firm serving corporate mobility, individual high-net-worth, and investor visa clients with technology-enabled case management — a comparable service model to MG International Mobility but with enterprise-grade scale and proprietary workflow tooling.

• EY Abogados Spain: EY's Spanish legal practice includes a migration area where MG International Mobility's co-founder previously worked — a direct talent and client pedigree overlap, competing for corporate immigration and global mobility mandates from multinational clients.
• KPMG Abogados Spain: KPMG's Spanish legal practice includes corporate immigration and global mobility services delivered to multinational clients — comparable offerings via a Big4 platform rather than as a standalone specialty firm.
• Fragomen: Fragomen is the world's largest dedicated immigration law firm with a sizeable Madrid practice covering corporate immigration, investor visas, and global mobility — directly overlapping MG International Mobility's core services but at vastly greater scale and global reach.

Regional players

• Smith Stone Walters: Smith Stone Walters is a UK-headquartered immigration law firm serving corporate and high-net-worth clients — comparable boutique immigration model but operating primarily in the UK rather than the Spanish market.

Direct peers
