Corporate Compliance Program
Our experts will design a bespoke program for your company by thoroughly analysing all the potential risks and misconducts your business and your employees are exposed to.
The Compliance Program is not only a lifeline in a world full of regulations but a statement of intent of transparency in business, good governance and a quality distinction before the market and the consumers for your company. On the other hand, the lack of a Compliance Program in your company can lead to significant fines or sanctions, loss of reputation and in some cases, judiciary intervention or its closure.
As for today is not mandatory to count with a Program (in Spain), but given the disrupting changes on business models, it is highly recommended.

Tax law advice
The Spanish tax law system is, arguably, the most challenging issue -as an individual or as a company owner- you are going to face. This is due to the Spanish growing economy in the past years, with increasing regulations to maintain its status in accordance with European standards. With a tax system becoming more and more complex every year, you must count on credited tax law experts that will help you and your company develop and grow your business safely and securely, as far as you want.
1. Financial & Legal Assessment
The first step in any creditor arrangement is to fully assess your financial situation. Our team conducts a detailed review of your company's debts, liabilities, and financial standing to determine the best course of action. We analyse your cash flow, outstanding obligations, and creditor claims to establish a legally sound negotiation strategy. This phase also involves ensuring compliance with Spanish insolvency laws, which govern how businesses can restructure debts.
2. Negotiating with Creditors
Once the financial analysis is complete, we represent you in discussions with creditors to negotiate new terms that provide relief while keeping your business operational. This can include restructuring payment plans, extending deadlines, or reducing overall debt. The goal is to find a mutually beneficial agreement where creditors recover a portion of their funds without forcing the business into liquidation. Our experience in corporate negotiations allows us to secure agreements that provide long-term stability for our clients.
3. Monitoring & Execution
After reaching an agreement, the terms must be formally established and executed. Our team ensures that all legal documents are properly drafted and that both parties adhere to the agreed conditions. We assist in monitoring payments, ensuring compliance with restructuring obligations, and preventing legal disputes. If any issues arise during the process, we provide continued legal support to protect your business from further complications.
