What we review
The first consultation helps establish what happened, which area of law is involved and what decision needs to be made. We identify documents, relevant dates and questions that need closer examination.
Documents to prepare
- A short chronology of the matter
- The main contracts, notices or decisions involved
- Relevant correspondence and supporting records
- Your questions and the outcome you hope to achieve
You do not need to arrive with a perfect file. Bring what is available and identify any documents still missing, especially where a formal date or deadline is involved.
Choosing the next step
We explain the possible next steps in clear language and identify the scope of any further work. A written proposal should make the service, fees and any separate costs understandable before instructions are agreed.
Questions about the process
Can I contact the firm before the file is complete?
Yes. An initial explanation can help identify missing documents and any urgent dates. The assessment can then be developed as the relevant material becomes available.
How do I arrange an initial consultation?
Call the Madrid office or use the enquiry form. Explain the main facts and any relevant deadline. We will identify the information needed and the scope of any proposed work.
