Litigation & Dispute Resolution Solicitors

Our specialist Dispute Resolution lawyers offer legal assistance in all types of litigation in Spanish territory. With offices in Spain in Madrid and Barcelona, we accompany the client through the jurisdictional or arbitration instances that are necessary to defend their interests in conflict situations. Furthermore, our international network allows us to collaborate with litigation experts from any foreign country when the litigation has a transnational aspect.

 

We previously analyse each issue, in order to know the feasibility of the claim and exhaust the possibilities of reaching a negotiated solution.

If any legal action has to be taken, we give advice on the procedural strategy to be used, amongst others, in the following areas:

 

  • Civil litigation: defence before the Court for any type of lawsuit, and before all legal or arbitration authorities, national or international.
  • Commercial litigation.
  • Insolvency litigation.

 

Likewise, our attorneys have extensive experience in both international and domestic arbitrations and in legal proceedings related to arbitration, such as the action for annulment of the arbitration award.

 

Finally, we also have experience in mediation services (alternative dispute resolution), which allows us to reach an agile resolution of the conflict and with less economic and emotional cost for the parties.

AGM is one of the law firms recommended in Spain by the Leaders League ranking for the categories of “Commercial Litigation” 2020, 2021 and 2022 and “International Arbitration” 2020, and by The Legal 500 in the “Tier 5” category in the area of “Dispute Resolution“, in its Spain 2023 edition.
