FAQ

No. The contents of this website are general in nature and do not in themselves constitute legal advice. Any information provided on the website is insufficient for making personal or business legal decisions without first analysing the specific case.

Yes. The first contact helps identify the matter, its urgency, the relevant legal area and the documents that should be reviewed before decisions are made.

The firm works in areas such as Civil, Criminal, Administrative, Real Estate, Family, Commercial, Employment, Environmental and Entertainment/Intellectual Property law. Each matter is assessed to determine whether it requires court action, negotiation, a prior claim or contractual documentation.

No general enquiries or legal consultations are handled through WhatsApp. WhatsApp is limited to criminal emergencies, where the nature of the matter requires especially fast communication.

The website does not use won cases, specific instructions or professional results as advertising material. The firm's communication focuses on practice areas, working method and general information, without disclosing client data or specific matters.

Fees and retainers are handled individually depending on the matter, its complexity, the existing documentation and the steps required, preferably in writing and before significant work begins. Where it is not possible to fix the full cost at the outset, the firm will seek to provide an estimate, indicative range, stages of work or review criterion.

Remuneration exclusively linked to the result obtained has historically been subject to limits and caution in Spain. Fees should therefore be handled clearly, individually and in accordance with applicable professional rules, taking into account the specific instruction and the work required.

In many proceedings it is necessary to appoint a lawyer and court representative in a formal manner. This may be done by notarial power of attorney or, in certain cases, through an apud acta authorisation before the court administration. The appropriate method depends on the proceedings, procedural stage and practical needs of the matter.

It depends on the type of proceedings, the competent authority or court and the procedural stage of the matter. The client is informed when personal attendance is necessary or foreseeable.

The matter is handled directly by the firm. In addition, where the subject requires it, it may be necessary to coordinate with court representatives, experts, investigators, forensic specialists, translators, economists, psychologists, legal assistants or other professionals.

Yes. No matter should be settled without the client's express consent. When negotiations begin or a relevant proposal exists, the client is informed so that they can participate, receive advice and decide.

Enforcement of a civil judgment will usually require an enforcement claim, with lawyer and court representative where applicable, within the legal time limits. Once filed, the court may grant time for voluntary compliance and, if that does not happen, asset investigation measures, attachment of sufficient assets, interest and costs may be requested where appropriate.

In Spain, the abogado provides the technical legal defence and must be registered with a Bar Association in order to practise. The procurador acts as procedural representative and channels official communications with the courts where required. In other countries there are roles such as solicitor, barrister, attorney, avocat, Rechtsanwalt, avvocato or advocaat, but their functions do not always correspond exactly to the Spanish ones.

A procurador is a court representative, distinct from the lawyer. In many Spanish court proceedings, the procurador formally represents the client before the court, receives official notifications, files documents through procedural systems and maintains the formal relationship with the court office. The lawyer handles the legal defence and strategy; the procurador provides procedural representation and supports the progress of the case. This should be explained clearly to foreign clients because many legal systems do not have an exact equivalent.
