Kristin Shaw
Kristin Shaw’s journey with Consult Immigration began as a client, when the team successfully guided her and her family through the process of obtaining residency in Spain. Having personally experienced the uncertainty, preparation and practical challenges involved in relocating from South Africa to Mallorca, Kristin understands just how valuable clear guidance and trusted support can be when making such a significant life change.
After experiencing life in Spain with her husband and two children, Kristin joined Consult Immigration to help others confidently take the first steps towards their own move. As the initial point of contact for many of our clients, she takes the time to understand their circumstances, answer their early questions and help them explore the most appropriate way forward before connecting them with the relevant immigration and legal professionals within the team.
Beyond the visa process, Kristin brings valuable first-hand knowledge of the practical realities of relocating a family to Spain, from researching areas and schools to finding reliable local services and building a new life abroad. Her personal experience, approachable nature and genuine understanding of the journey allow her to offer clients the reassurance and support she knows can make all the difference.

David Poole
The concept of Consult Immigration was born from the personal journey of the company's founder, David Poole, a successful businessman and entrepreneur. When David began his own European residency application for himself and his family, he soon realised just how difficult it was to find the right experts to ensure that his application and the associated requirements would be successful. It was only through his contact with family friends in Europe that David eventually connected with an Immigration attorney that could ably assist, and his residency application was successful. Through this difficult journey, David learned much about the immigration processes required for a successful application. He saw an opportunity to build a business that could alleviate the stress of the immigration process, so that those taking this bold step, could focus their time and attention on the many exciting aspects of the process. With this in mind, David began actively connecting with top Immigration Attorneys, as well as leading Investment, Tax, Legal, Business, Real Estate and Forex professionals, and others, and in-so-doing, developed strong partnerships with some of the top experts in their respective fields. And so, Consult Immigration was established.
