With over 20 years of professional experience, Alex Carbonell holds a degree in Law and a Master’s in Business and Tax Law from ESADE University. In addition, he has pursued studies at the Academy of American and International Law in the United States, specialising in International and Comparative Law.

He began his professional career with a Leonardo grant from the European Union at Haarman Hemmelrath & Partner in Germany. Later, he joined Gómez-Acebo & Pombo Abogados, where he developed an extensive career in the corporate, real estate, and financial departments at the Madrid and Barcelona offices. During his time at the firm, he reached the position of Partner in the Commercial Department.

Alex now joins the Transactions, Mergers and Acquisitions, and Corporate team at AGM Abogados in the Barcelona office.

“AGM is a well-established law firm, in constant growth and with an increasingly prominent presence in the field of business law at a national level. I am very excited to join a team with an excellent human and technical profile and I would like to thank AGM for trusting me to contribute to its success.”

With extensive experience, Carbonell has advised clients in processes of mergers, acquisitions, corporate restructurings, foreign investments in Spain and Spanish companies abroad, as well as in complex financing and commercial contracts. Additionally, he has worked with companies in key sectors such as venture capital, private equity, retail, new technologies, financial services and fintech, automotive, pharmaceutical, and real estate.

“The key to being a good lawyer, beyond having strong technical knowledge, is understanding your client’s needs and their business in order to provide practical, effective advice with a long-term vision, tailored to their interests”.
