Criminal Lawyers A Coruna: Criminal Law Leadership in Galicia

From A Coruna, headquarters of the High Court of Justice of Galicia, we coordinate complex defences throughout the province, including Ferrol and Santiago. We understand the legal needs of a city that is home to global corporate giants.

Corporate and Economic Crimes

We offer sophisticated defence for the Coruna business fabric:

  • Corporate Defence (Compliance): Advice to textile, logistics, and technology companies on crime prevention. Defence of administrators against lawsuits for corporate crimes, frustration of execution, or tax fraud.
  • Computer Crimes: Defence and private prosecution in cases of computer scams, illicit access to company data (industrial espionage), and computer damage.

Maritime Drug Trafficking

We maintain a combative defence in anti-drug operations with port connections or coastal offloads, questioning the validity of police evidence (beacons, geolocation) to protect the client's freedom.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have a firm based in A Coruña?
No. Alonso Sala has a single office, at Calle Velázquez 27 in Madrid, from which it takes on defence work before courts throughout Spain. For Galician matters counsel travels to the judicial district for each procedural step and, where the case calls for it, the defence is coordinated with local collaborating lawyers. The first consultation is by appointment and may be held by video call.
Can you assist someone detained in A Coruña?
Yes. We take on legal assistance at police premises and before the duty service of the Court of Instance in A Coruña (formerly the duty court, Juzgado de Guardia), with counsel travelling to the district. If the arrest has already taken place, contact the firm as soon as possible so the statement can be prepared and any precautionary measures assessed.
Which offences do you defend in A Coruña?
Most of our work there involves corporate and economic offences arising from the Galician industrial base (misappropriation, unfair administration, falsification of annual accounts), tax offences, computer offences, maritime drug trafficking in the rías, and fishing-sector and environmental offences, alongside gender violence and offences against the person.
Do you also act in Santiago de Compostela or Ferrol?
Yes. Besides the Investigation Section of the Court of Instance of A Coruña (formerly the investigating courts), we act in the judicial districts of Santiago de Compostela, Ferrol, Carballo and Betanzos, before the criminal courts and the Provincial Court of A Coruña, and before the High Court of Justice of Galicia.

Criminal defence based in Madrid with national coverage.

If your proceeding is being heard in another judicial district, we assess travel from Madrid or coordination with a collaborating lawyer at the venue.
