Hello all.  I am in the US and want to live in Spain.  I am a practicing attorney (immigration and criminal law) and am curious about what someone with my training may be able to do in Spain.  I am a native Spanish speaker and have visited Spain for extended periods, but have not been able to find too much in the way of legal jobs/expat legal jobs.  Any suggestions? Other websites with this info?  Any help would be great.

Finding an entry level law job that pays more than a very low wage is difficult for people with a Spanish law degree. For someone with a foreign law degree, it’s going to be more difficult: knowing American immigration and criminal law is not useful here, though fluency in English will help. You’re going to have a hard time finding a job that will pay more than 1000 euros a month, especially with the current economy.  Sorry, best of luck.
