This excellence is supported by the firm through continuing training programmes which the firm regards as essential for personal and professional growth.

It applies its expertise and extensive legal experience to business activities, no matter the sector, but understands that at present it is essential to provide its team with knowledge of other areas through training on digitisation, language skills, marketing, teamwork and leadership.
Most of DA’s clients are companies, public and private, national and international, that require legal advice to protect their interests in certain situations, or that may require some support of a legal nature in every administrative proceeding that the company goes through. In both cases, DA Lawyers acts in a committed and responsible way to reach the best results through personal involvement and professional close contact which its clients are grateful for.
Areas of practice: The firm has more than 50 lawyers, specialised in industry sectors in which it provides comprehensive and international advice, both to companies and individuals.
