A second citizenship, advised independently.
Independent, attorney-led counsel on citizenship and residency-by-investment programs worldwide — candid comparison, full handling.

A second citizenship is one of the most consequential decisions a family makes — and most advisers sell the programs they represent. Maalouf Law Firm advises independently: we compare programs candidly against your goals, then handle the application end to end, as a law firm.
Citizenship by Investment programs
We advise on every active citizenship-by-investment program, including: St. Kitts & Nevis, Antigua & Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Lucia, Malta, Türkiye, Egypt, Jordan, North Macedonia, Nauru, São Tomé & Príncipe, Vanuatu, and the Austria exceptional-contribution route. A dedicated page for each.

Why independent counsel matters
We are paid to advise you, not to place you in a particular program. Because MLF also handles your company, banking and tax, your citizenship plan fits the rest of your structure.
