Our team of Spanish lawyers can offer legal assistance to the investors who are in need of a solution in a shareholder dispute

 

How to resolve a shareholders dispute in Spain 

 
Spanish authorities have imposed the rules and regulations applicable in the European Union’s area, as the country became a member state in 1986. Such conflicts can be resolved through alternative dispute resolution (ADR), such as arbitration or mediation
 
Arbitration in Spain is performed by an impartial arbitrator, who is familiar with the respective field and who can provide his input. However, if the parts fail to agree upon the terms, the case can be presented in front of a Spanish court
 
ADR methods are recommended in the situation in which the parties can reach an amicable solution as the costs are lower and the time invested in the procedure is much shorter than if the case would be brought in the court. As a general rule, the costs for ADR are usually shared between the parties; our team of Spanish attorneys can offer more details on each procedure.
