About A§ILF – ADVOCAAT MADRID

In the mid-1960s, Nathalie Zanolie’s grandfather fell completely in love with the island of Tenerife during a brief stopover of the cruise ship on which he was traveling from the Netherlands to South Africa. Years later, her maternal family temporarily moved to the south of the island. After living among the local community, at a time when Los Cristianos was still a small fishing port, they decided to invest in the purchase of land and the construction of one of the first residential apartment complexes in Playa de Las Américas. The family dream became a reality after years of dedication and effort.

This family background has deeply shaped Nathalie’s identity — half Canarian, half Dutch — and has enabled her, throughout her professional career in Spain, to understand the needs of many clients, particularly Belgian and Dutch nationals, who have chosen to settle permanently or temporarily in our country, or have considered doing so at some point.

After gaining experience in the private sector and later in the real estate field, Nathalie began her professional journey as a lawyer by founding “Advocaat Tenerife” with the aim of providing legal advice and support to her clients. She currently practices law and has been registered with the Bar Association of Santa Cruz de Tenerife under number 3,033 since 1999. Her command of Dutch, English and Spanish, combined with her extensive experience, has enabled her to expand her practice across different areas of law and to consolidate her corporate identity under the name A§ILF (Advocaten Spanje & Spain International Law Firm) – ADVOCAAT MADRID.
