Debt Recovery in Spain

We are experts in this area. In the last ten years we have taken part in many trials in different cities of Spain like Madrid, Valencia and Zaragoza defending our client’s interests. Many of them have been proceedings for recovering debts with very good results.

Initially, we try to avoid the court actions contacting the debtor both by telephone and sending letters of demand for the recovery of the debt. If the measures taken extra-judicially fail to recover the debt, the next stage is to pursue the matter before the courts. We should only really consider going ahead when all of the information relating to the debtor indicates that this will be a worthwhile strategy. If the information about the financial position is good, we both decide if the best way is the ‘Proceso Monitorio’ or, without further ado, the ‘Ordinary Civil Trial’ or the ‘Verbal Civil Trial.
