We will represent you in the administrative stage and then before the court.
§ 1
Approach
Sometimes it begins with an application, sometimes with submissions or an appeal. We will choose the filing your case calls for and draft it with the court already in mind.
The engagement covers the administrative stage and the first instance in court, however long the court's schedule runs.
If your matter has little prospect of success, we will tell you in the Virtual Consultation, before proposing an engagement.
§ 2
Engagement
El importe exacto se cierra en la hoja de encargo antes de pagar, con los gastos previsibles incluidos. Si el encargo se alarga, no pagas más.
§ 3
Process
A 60-minute working session by video call in which we analyse your situation, your specific needs and our ability to help you. We assess whether we can take on the matter and give you the fixed price in advance. You can book it directly through the Google Calendar link on our website and pay €90 by Stripe.
Document produced once the engagement is accepted, setting out the agreed legal strategy for the matter. It specifies the procedural approach, the main arguments, the evidence to be deployed and the objectives of the proceedings. It is the roadmap for the case and the reference point for any subsequent tactical decision.
Drafting and filing of the application or claim before the competent administrative body that opens the prior administrative channel. Sets out the facts, grounds the claim in law and frames the relief sought with precision, preserving every available course of action and avoiding time bars that would narrow the options in subsequent judicial review proceedings.
Ongoing attention to the matter between the main steps: deadline control, procedural or administrative follow-up, response to requests for correction and management of court notifications. The client hears from us each time there is a development in the file, and never has to ask in order to know what is happening.
Drafting and filing of the ordinary administrative appeal against the decision rejecting the initial claim. Exhausts the prior administrative channel with an argument that prepares the judicial review proceedings on the most favourable terms available, anticipating the points the court will have to resolve.
Drafting and filing of the document initiating proceedings, in which the client's claims are brought, the facts are set out with legal precision and the relief sought is grounded in the applicable law and case law. Signed and filed before the competent court, with the documentary evidence properly ordered and referenced.
Preparation for and attendance at the trial hearing: organisation of the evidence, formulation of closing submissions and oral defence of the client's claims before the court. Includes prior analysis of the evidentiary outcome, adjustment of the argumentative strategy and management of the proceedings through to notification of judgment.

Team
I see legal practice as a discipline of precision. I work where the law meets technology and cross-border operations, and I read code and contracts with the same attention. Before accepting an engagement I tell you whether it is worth pursuing and what it costs, at a fixed price.
I work where economic law meets technology: litigation, contracts and artificial intelligence systems. I am drawn to the ground where the rules are still being written, and I have brought that same rigour to litigation since my first year in practice.

Questions
From €3,000 + VAT, at a fixed price agreed in the engagement letter before we start. That covers the whole process: the prior administrative stage and the claim before the administrative court, with every step included in the price. The fees of the procurador (the court agent required in Spanish proceedings) are not part of ours: they are set out precisely, together with those of any other professional, in the proposal and in the engagement letter.
Every step in the proceedings: the filing that opens the administrative stage (an application, submissions or an appeal), the claim, the evidence stage, the hearing and closing submissions. The case may run for as long as the court's schedule dictates without that generating new items. Before you pay, you receive a Strategy Memorandum with an honest assessment of the prospects.
The amount at stake and the complexity of the matter. The exact figure is fixed in the engagement letter before you pay a euro, and never exceeds 20% of the amount at stake. With fees from €3,000, that cap means this engagement fits when at least €15,000 is at stake: below that, litigation rarely pays off for the client, and we would rather tell you so.
At the outset, in a single invoice covering our fees and the foreseeable costs of the proceedings (the procurador and, where applicable, experts or other professionals). No partial payments on account and no later surprises: what is agreed in the engagement letter is what you pay, whether the case is won or lost.
Yes, through the Tax Disputes service, which covers the claim before the tax tribunal and tax litigation in court.
Sixty minutes on Google Meet with a qualified lawyer. It costs €90 including VAT and will be deducted from the first invoice if an engagement follows.
