Ranked Individual
Provided by Seegman
We are a corporate/M&A team focused on small-market and lower mid-market transactions in Spain, acting for international and domestic clients on acquisitions, disposals, add-ons and joint ventures. We support clients throughout the full deal cycle, from structuring and due diligence to negotiation of SPAs/SHAs, management equity, completion and post-closing integration, with a strong emphasis on pragmatic execution, speed and partner-led service.
Our practice is particularly active on inbound investment into Spain, including corporate structuring for foreign investors and coordination of multi-jurisdictional workstreams. We regularly advise on founder-led and family-owned business transactions, corporate reorganisations linked to M&A (carve-outs, pre-sale restructurings, rollovers), and governance arrangements for shareholder-heavy structures.
