Profiel
We zijn een middelgroot internationaal kantoor met 35 advocaten, snel, dynamisch en op gelijke voet met de grootste kantoren. Ons kenmerk is een sterke interculturele vaardigheid. Vanuit onze kantoren in Barcelona, Madrid en Palma de Mallorca adviseren en ondersteunen we buitenlandse ondernemingen en particulieren met belangen in Spanje.
Intenationaal
Ooit ontstond ons kantoor om bijstand te bieden aan Duitstalige ondernemingen. Op dit gebied zijn we vooralsnog marktleider in Spanje. In binnen en -buitenland staat ons werk hoog aangeschreven. Dankzij onze samenwerking met het Amerikaanse kantoor Harris Bricken hebben we een US Desk opgericht voor Amerikaanse ondernemingen die in de Spaanse markt investeren. Dit heeft onze positie als internationaal kantoor geconsolideerd.
Onze advocaten zijn actieve leden van internationale organisaties zoals IR Global, IBA en AIJA. Daarnaast zijn we medeoprichters van CBBL Cross Border Business Lawyers, het enige globale netwerk van Duitstalige advocatenkantoren met vertegenwoordiging in meer dan 60 landen.
