We do not want to cancel contracts.Costaluzlawyers

Dear all:
Yesterday....after posting about our success in contract cancellation, something left a bitter taste inside me which has been pushing inside till now.... : I want to share something with you:
It was not fighting against developers and cancelling contracts of english speaking people in Spain the core of my dreams when I started the Costaluzlawyers adventure two years ago. Rather the contrary.
I wanted to help people to settle in Spain, specially in Costa de la Luz.
Let me tell you a bot of our tale:
A friend of mine made a blog for me and suggested me to fill the blog with good and relevant information which would help me to have an enhanced position in Google listings. ( that was before meeting you, Justin...!! of course) . He also suggested me to link to related websites. That´s why I met Justin. I called him and we agreed on me sending some articles for him to review and maybe post in EyeonSpain newsletter.
I have just concluded a case as my father´s assistant ( yes, he is also a lawyer) for which I have deeply studied on Bank Guarantees, so... I decided to write on that topic and send it to Justin together with a couple more of pieces on Real Estate Consumer Law in Andalucia. He trusted me and started published them in the newsletter and ...... suddenly.... dozens of emails filled my inbox.
It was not that the article were excellent... it was that none of you knew of your rights as Real Estate consumers in Spain. The right thing, the right moment, the right way.... Of course hours and hours of work advising people too.
I am writing this... because,even when the public has asked us, by now... to help then have their deposits returned... and that is being our main task recently. What we really want to see happening is to have people moving/ investing/ holidaying in Spain ["if the economy permits it.... ( where are we going economically??... I wonder a lot recently)] with full guararantes and them being in control of the situation. Such a challenge! We think big!
We are six now... and we hope to grow so we can offer better and broader services, we want to make a difference in the legal arena for english speaking people in Spain. We want you here and we want you happily here.
So that....please forgive our mistakes and encourage our efforts... we try hard.
Needless to say.. I have got the best people with me: Rocio, Aroha, Steven, Almu, Patricia, borther Ignacio, brother Jaime, Fernando, Alicia, Luzvi y papá. Thanks to you all.
Love from Spain,
Maria
