More about appeals to the administrative courts

We help you with the ordinary administrative court procedure

At Escalera & Tuset we provide advice and representation in administrative law. We are specialist guardians of our clients' rights in disputes with public authorities.

Administrative litigation is the route through the law that allows claims brought by a country's citizens against public authorities to be resolved. That includes central government, the regional government of each autonomous community, local government represented by the town and city councils, and the rest of the public institutions that make up the Spanish public administration. It is a route where an independent third branch of power, the judiciary, decides whether the acts of the administration comply with the law.

To get to that decision, however, certain steps have to be taken first. Chiefly, lodging the appeal to the administrative courts: a legal tool through which a citizen or an organisation states that they disagree with the acts and procedures carried out by a public body. Is that your situation? Do you believe a public authority has harmed your interests by acting contrary to the law? Let us help you. We will stay with you throughout the whole appeal.

Lawyers specialising in administrative litigation

Escalera & Tuset has a department specialising in administrative law, staffed by professionals in that field with a long track record behind them: experts in the ordinary administrative court procedure. That is how we manage to offer our clients a quality professional service in which they are advised at all times and protected by every legal tool available to them.

That is what sets Escalera & Tuset apart. Our firm was founded with a firm resolve to provide highly specialised services. Here you will not be dealt with by a general practitioner. Your case will be run by an administrative law solicitor whose only field of study is administrative law. Spanish administrative law, specifically. On that score, you will be in good hands. We will look for the best solution available for what you need.

Of course, we take care of lodging the appeal to the administrative courts and taking it through. To do that, all purely administrative remedies have to have been exhausted first, or the appropriate claims against administrative inaction must have been brought. Administrative law is undoubtedly one of the most complex and, on the face of it, most impenetrable areas of law. Let us stay alongside you and make the process easier and more effective.

Also in civil law

The criminal department covers everything from minor offences to defence in proceedings involving remand in custody.
