COMPANY SET-UP PHASE

When setting up a company, it is essential to establish a solid legal basis to safeguard its long-term success. Our services include:

• Company incorporation: We facilitate the creation of Limited Liability Companies (Sociedades de Responsabilidad Limitada (SL)), Public Limited Companies (Sociedades Anónimas (SA)), and Cooperatives, among others, including obtaining the company name, and drafting the Articles of Association and Deed of Incorporation necessary for their registration in the Commercial Register.

• Processing of digital certificates: We manage the acquisitio of digital certificates, a tool that is essential in order to operate in the online environment and comply with tax and commercial obligations.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PHASE

As your company grows and develops its day-to-day business, sound legal advice is essential in order to manage risks, optimise operations and protect your interests. At this stage, we offer the following services:

• Drafting and reviewing commercial contracts: We draft and review your business' key contracts, such as contracts for the supply of goods and services, distribution contracts, agency contracts and other commercial agreements.

• Debt collection: We efficiently manage the collection of unpaid debts, using extrajudicial and judicial methods to protect your liquidity.
• Capital increase: We advise on and manage capital increase processes, whether they involve monetary or non-monetary contributions, ensuring that the operation complies with the applicable legal and tax requirements.
• Provision of secretarial services to the Board of Directors: We act as a non-director Secretary to your Board of Directors, ensuring that all minutes and documents are in order and legally compliant.
• Challenging corporate resolutions: We represent partners and shareholders who wish to challenge corporate resolutions that they consider harmful or contrary to the law.
• Processing of specific applications: We carry out procedures such as:
  • Application for Corporate Certificates.
  • Application for a simple, informative note from the Commercial Registry.
  • Request for the intervention of an independent expert.
  • Request for the appointment of an auditor where necessary, in accordance with the requirements of the Capital Companies Law (Ley de Sociedades de Capital).

COMPANY CLOSURE AND LIQUIDATION PHASE

When the time comes to close a company, whether by strategic decision or due to extraneous circumstances, it is essential to do so in an orderly and compliant manner. We offer the following services:

• Dissolution and liquidation of companies: We manage the complete process of dissolution and liquidation of the limited liability company or any other type of company, ensuring that all legal and tax obligations are properly met.
