Issues related to Labour Law and the Spanish Social Security System are given a secondary importance in our current society. Nevertheless, this area of Law affects all spheres of society.
Any worker, either employed or self-employed, will need at some point in their career to solve issues related to: signature of labour contracts, redundancies, social benefits, unemployment allowances, retirement pensions, medical leaves and so on. That is why Labour Law is so important in many moments of our lives. This is regulated by an ever-changing group of legal rules. Hence, our professionals need to keep pace with the new published normative as well as with the Doctrine originated from the European Courts, especially concerning workers and companies.
Iurislaw Legal Consultants are proud of offering a qualified labour legal assistance, not only in the province of Almeria, but also in the autonomous community of Andalusia and nationwide. As a matter of fact, we have a wide experience in the Courts of all Andalusia, the three Social Chambers of the Superior Court of Justice (Seville, Granada y Malaga) as well as in the fourth Social Chamber of the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Court.
This branch of Law covers a range of issues where the Local, Autonomous or National Administration are engaged.
Our lawyers master this area perfectly, counting on a great experience in interventions regarding:
Civil Law governs all aspects of daily life. It comprises the legal rules that regulate those areas concerning one´s personality, the family and the property relations. Consequently, skilled lawyers are needed in order to counsel and represent those who demand legal advice.
Iurislaw Legal Consultants rely on the best experts, who will advice the clients ensuring their interests and satisfying their needs. The Good Faith Requirement is always taken into consideration when representing our clients.
Our team of professionals deals with the following subjects:
Within the scope of Family Law, Iurislaw Legal Consultants offer our clients assistance when reaching an agreement in separations or divorces, as well as guidance in the judicial process when this agreement is not settled amicably.
Currently, shared custody cases are very frequent. These cases are also handled by our professionals. Moreover, legal counsel is offered in cases of inheritances, proceeding before the hereditary succession takes place in order to avoid conflicts. Consequently, our wide experience and knowledge are provided in order to do draw up wills, agreements as to succession and familiar protocols.

Quoting the notorious jurist and German politician Franz von Liszt, Criminal Law can be defined as ‘a group of legal rules established by the State, which consider the crime as a fact and the punishment as a legitimate consequence’. In other words, it is the compilation of legal rules through which the State regulates its punitive authority, considering facts as an assumption and assigning a punishment as a consequence. Hence, protecting the individual´s and society`s integrity.
The firm´s main goal is to achieve our clients’ exemption or attenuation from criminal liability, bearing in mind that being deprived of freedom is a sensitive issue. Our professionals are experts in:
The success of this firm lies in the close individual approach to the clients and in the excellent work our professionals carry out everyday. Hence, offering a professional thorough quality service.
We daily work to fight abusive practices carried out by banks when marketing banking products. Accordingly, an individual study of the client´s case will be made taking into consideration the clauses included in the deed of loan in order to suppress them from the banking contract. Among those clauses are:
ANNULMENT OF ‘FLOOR CLAUSES’ IN MORTGAGES.
In order to make a claim to a bank, it is necessary to count on a reliable professional so that abusive practices could be avoided.
Calculating the refund amounts is a complex procedure and the software available on the web do not calculate these amounts correctly and hence, damaging the clients´ interests. In consequence, Iurislaw Legal consultants will claim amicably first. If this is not possible or the bank opposes, then a lawsuit will be filed. This lawsuit will request the annulment of these clauses and the refund of the amounts overpaid by the customer. Equally, it will calculate a new amortisation table with the increased interest rates.
It is possible and lawful to carry out this claim, because this clause is only beneficial to the bank and harmful to the customer. In fact, The Courts are declaring the nullity of theses clauses due to the lack of transparency and information on behalf of the banks.
NULLITY OF THE MORTGAGE LOAN REFERENCE INDEX (IRPH)
Recently, there have been numerous Court sentences stating that the mortgage loan reference index is null. This clause is seen as unfair and abusive for the client. As a matter of fact, a preliminary ruling has been submitted to the European Court of Justice and it will foreseeably judge on behalf of the customers like in the floor clauses cases.
NULLITY OF "Hipoteca Tranquilidad" mortgage loan.
During the years 2007 and 2008 the Spanish Bank Banesto, current Santander Bank, launched a type of fixed-rate mortgage loan called ‘Hipoteca Tranquilidad’. Banesto offered a fixed interest rate of 5% and 5,75 % during the first 10 years of the mortgage. Therefore, the customer would not have to worry about the constant rise in the Euribor during that period of time. However, the Euribor has not increased since then. This advertising claim was made knowing that the Euribor would not continue on rising, being at that time at 4.75% and going down after that. In fact, Spanish Courts are ruling sentences of consumers affected by this type of mortgage loan.
The “Banesto Tranquilidad” Mortgage had abusive clauses and the bank did not inform the consumer properly. Therefore, Banesto made sure that their dividends were in constant growth at the expense of the consumers’ sacrifice.
Bearing all this in mind, our law firm will carry out a thorough defence of the consumers who have suffered abusive banking terms when signing this type of mortgage loans.
Commercial law is the branch of Law that entails the engagement in trade. Therefore, it is present in all business relations. It deals with aspects such as contracting, methods of payment and liabilities.
