I am moving to Panama in the next 2-3 months. Everything I read says I need lawyers to "make it happen"....
and the fees quoted amount to thousands of dollars.....for example I need to pay a lawyer $700 to facilitate
opening a time savings account ?? Just out of curiosity, I called Banco Nacional de Panama today....and
asked if I needed a lawyer to open a time savings account, and the answer was NO !
Can anyone advise me which functions absolutely require a lawyer, and which do not.....obviously where they are absolutely critical, I have no issues with paying them, but not it it's not necessary ! Thanks for any input you
can provide.....if a bilingual Expat can help with this process, I would rather pay YOU !!
