Customs Law and International Trade

Advice on customs infringements, as well as representation in all types of customs proceedings at both judicial and administrative level.

We stand out for carrying out processes of abandonment of goods and release of containers belonging to shipping companies.

Labour Law

Advice and representation in individual labour disputes and in collective disputes, acting in negotiations before the Wage Council.

In addition to participating in general labour claims, we specialise in maritime labour law.

Maritime labour law is a sector within labour law that requires specialised knowledge that goes hand in hand with the specialisation that comes with maritime law. At sea, labour relations, working hours, rest periods, holidays, etc., have special rules that require a different analysis. Understanding the labour relations that take place on board a ship requires experience and knowledge beyond that of a specialist in ordinary labour law.
