My husband John and I first came to know Rosario Araya in the late 90’s when she was John’s Spanish teacher in Costa Rica. Over time, we developed a friendship and encouraged Rosario to go to law school. We have followed her career through real estate, construction, and law. We have purchased property and built a house in Costa Rica, with Rosario at our side advising us. Without her assistance, we would likely not have been comfortable with real estate in Costa Rica and would not have purchased. She possesses a keen legal mind and uses her ability to see the big picture as well as the small details. She is one of the hardest workers we have ever met, and her energy level is extraordinary. But the most important thing Rosario offers her clients is her integrity and her capacity to honestly inspire trust. She treats her clients’ business as if it is her own, and we have seen this over and over again as we have referred other people to her. She works to understand each client’s situation and then offers her best advice, working to achieve the client’s goals in the most successful way possible. She has put together an outstanding legal team, with each member sharing her values and contributing to full service for their clients. Her husband Tim is an invaluable asset to the team and uses his knowledge of Costa Rica real estate to the advantage of the firm’s clients. We highly and without reservation recommend Rosario Araya and her team to anyone needing legal assistance in Costa Rica, and we are happy to have anyone considering Pacific Coast Law contact us for additional thoughts and to answer questions.
