If your partner has a UK passport and resides in the UK then he/she will need to apply for a visa from the Spanish consulate before they can apply for residency in Spain. A solicitor in Spain cannot make that initial application for them.

Hi Grace,

Are you an EU citizen, i.e. hold a passport from an EU country?  If so, your partner could join you as a "Family member of an EU citizen", but you would need to have a formally recognised partnership, e.g. Parejo de Hecho in Spain, although it's easier to register your partnership in the UK.  These links explain in more detail:

Kind regards,

Kim
