EFFECTIVE SUPPORT AND PLANNING
We support companies throughout their corporate life in Spain. The work starts by understanding your structure, shareholders, activities and decision-making process, so we can provide advice that is aligned with your commercial objectives.

Finally, we coordinate with notaries, registries, tax advisors and other professionals where needed. Our team combines legal precision with operational efficiency, helping you maintain compliance and act quickly when business decisions must be implemented.

FREQUENTLY aSKED QUESTION
Ongoing corporate legal support covers the documentation and governance decisions that arise throughout the life of a company: board resolutions, shareholder meetings, director changes, powers of attorney, statutory amendments and corporate records maintenance. It ensures your company remains legally organised and compliant with Spanish corporate law at all times. For international companies, having this support in English removes a significant operational barrier.
Yes. Spanish corporate law requires that the annual general meeting be held within the first six months of each financial year to approve the annual accounts and the management of the company. Failure to comply can result in liability for directors and difficulties with the Trade Register. We prepare the required documentation and ensure the process is correctly recorded and filed.
Director appointments and resignations must be documented by a notarial deed and registered in the Trade Register to be effective against third parties. Until registration is completed, the change may not be enforceable externally. We manage the full process — from drafting the resolution to coordinating the notary and submitting the filing.
Not all resolutions require notarisation, but those involving statutory changes, capital operations, director appointments and certain corporate restructurings do. Resolutions that modify the bylaws or require Trade Register registration must be formalised before a public notary. We advise on which decisions require notarial intervention and manage the coordination accordingly.
A power of attorney (escritura de poderes) authorises a person to act on behalf of the company for specific purposes — signing contracts, representing the company before authorities, opening bank accounts or managing real estate transactions. International companies operating in Spain frequently need powers of attorney to delegate day-to-day functions to local representatives. We draft, notarise and register powers of attorney as part of our corporate legal service.
Outdated corporate records — missing shareholder registers, unregistered resolutions, incomplete deed history — create practical and legal problems: difficulties with banks, notaries and public authorities, exposure during due diligence processes, and potential liability for directors. Regularising the corporate record requires a structured review and, in some cases, notarial rectification. We identify and resolve these gaps as part of our corporate support work.
Yes. We provide ongoing company secretarial functions for international companies that do not have a legal or administrative team in Spain. This includes maintaining corporate records, preparing and filing resolutions, coordinating with notaries and registries, and ensuring governance decisions are properly documented and implemented. It is a practical solution for groups managing multiple entities across different jurisdictions.
