Initial assessment
Are you lawyers?
+
Yes. We are lawyers specialising in companies and individuals with significant assets. Our team brings together corporate lawyers, tax specialists and financial experts with decades of experience advising corporate groups, international investors and families with complex wealth structures in Spain and worldwide.
How is the due diligence service coordinated?

Beyond the legal and financial services we provide in-house, we have an established network of external professionals — engineers, industrial experts, specialist technicians and technology providers — that lets us coordinate due diligence end to end. That gives us a complete and realistic view of the transaction: not only the legal and tax analysis, but also the technical, operational and technological viability of the asset or company involved.
