Case Studies

1. Diego Taboada from Buenos Aires (Argentina)
   
   Diego Taboada now runs a thriving brasserie in central Marbella. His customers, both locals and tourists alike, enjoy a range of typical Spanish and Argentinian dishes. Diego has successfully tapped in to the local community by providing a quality menu at reasonable prices using fresh local produce from his traditional kitchen, whilst at the same time he has captured the both the local South American community and the imagination of the passing tourists by whetting their appetites by cleverly installing a large “Asador” (open charcoal grill) at the entrance to the restaurant which has a wide range of typically prepared Argentinian meats sizzling away on full view from the street.
   

2. Nabil and Rola from Beirut (Lebanon)
   
   Nabil and Rola from Beirut applied to Lawbird in October 2002. We applied for work permits and residency for Nabil, Rola and Suheil, Rola´s brother, to set up a garage and rent-a-car business (Magicar SL) to be based in Marbella.. In early 2003 the application was approved together with all the appropriate paperwork and licenses to commence the business.
