Criminal Defence Lawyer at the Getafe Courthouse

The Getafe judicial district (Avenida Juan Carlos I, s/n, 28905 Getafe) comprises the municipality of Getafe alone (Pinto and Valdemoro belong to other judicial districts). With its First Instance and Investigation Sections, its Criminal Section and a Gender Violence Court (today a Section for Violence against Women of the Court of Instance, art. 89 LOPJ, following Organic Law 1/2025), it is one of the southern-metropolitan districts with the highest procedural volume.

Detainee Assistance at the Police Station

The Getafe National Police Station and Civil Guard barracks distribute detentions. We attend personally to prepare the statement, evaluate whether to invoke the right to remain silent and shield the chain of custody of evidence.

Criminal Typologies in Getafe

• Gender violence: The Getafe Violence against Women Section holds protection-order hearings on very short notice. We defend both reported and reporting parties with strategy tailored to the specific court.
• DUI: Levels detected on A-4, M-50 and M-45 checks generate massive proceedings. Breathalyzer challenge, chain-of-custody questioning and addiction mitigation are our usual lines.
• Theft and robbery: Shopping centers (Bulevar, Nassica) and industrial estates are habitual hotspots for repeat-offender professional thefts, with the multirecidivism reform of LO 1/2026 aggravating the criminal response.
• Drug trafficking: Retail operations in Getafe Norte and Sector III neighborhoods, with defence supported by toxicological expert evidence.
• Workplace safety: Industrial-park accidents with severe injuries or fatalities, investigated in Getafe.

Coordination with the Provincial Court

Appeals against rulings of the Getafe Criminal Section (formerly the Getafe Criminal Court) are handled by the Madrid Provincial Court (General Castaños street). We maintain continuous procedural follow-up between instances to ensure argumental coherence.
