Practice Areas

The engineering industry is one of our main specialities. We are also highly experienced in the protection of foreign investment and in proceedings regarding international commercial contracts.

We are experienced in both ad hoc proceedings and arbitrations administered by the most prominent institutions: International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC); London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), Corte Civil y Mercantil de Arbitraje (CIMA); Corte de Arbitraje de Madrid (CAM), Corte Española de Arbitraje (CEA); Corte de Arbitraje del Colegio de Abogados de Madrid (ICAM) and the Tribunal Arbitral de Barcelona (TAB).

We have led the defence of our clients in controversies relating to international sales and purchase agreements, distribution, supply, licence or franchise agreements, as well as engineering design and project execution agreements. This defence has included representing our clients before the Supreme Court in a number of appeals proceedings. Likewise, we have conducted proceedings for the recognition and enforcement of foreign resolutions in Spain and for the enforcement of Spanish resolutions abroad.

Our extensive network of national and international contacts enables us to represent and support our clients in international jurisdictions where local legal services might be required, with the same personal approach and with specific and accessible counterparts.

Stampa Abogados has extensive experience in national and international mediation, especially in commercial matters, and can help the parties in dispute as mediator or conciliator, or with advice as a party representative in a mediation process.

The parties may seek the advice of their lawyers or the opinion of an expert as they see fit, at each stage of the process. The parties are free to suspend the talks at any time, and the contents of the negotiations are completely confidential and have no implications for future litigation that may arise.

We advise our clients, Spanish or foreign companies, on commercial contracts regarding, among others, national and international purchase agreements, distribution, supply, licencing or franchise agreements, as well as engineering design and project execution agreements.

In the early stages, Stampa Abogados can advise their clients on the wording and legal scope of complex contract clauses regarding the various substantive and procedural aspects of the projects, predicting the advantages and disadvantages of their effects, and thus optimise financial and time expenditure.

Anticipating situations can prevent legal claims in the future.
