Criminal Lawyers Seville: Excellence in Criminal Defense in Andalusia

Seville is not only the administrative capital of Andalusia but a first-order judicial focus in southern Spain. From our practice in Seville, we confidently cover the entire western region (Huelva, Cadiz, Cordoba), with a prominent presence in the Provincial Court of Seville . We understand the idiosyncrasy of Andalusian courts and apply a defense strategy combining maximum technical rigor with the necessary oratorical and persuasive skills in the courtroom.

Macro-cases and Economic Criminal Law

Seville has hosted major economic-criminal proceedings with extremely long instruction phases that have shaped Spanish Supreme Court doctrine on subsidy fraud, misconduct in office (prevaricación) and corporate crimes. We rely on that case law to design a specific defense methodology for "macro-trials":

  • Massive Information Management: We have tools to process digitized summaries of hundreds of thousands of pages, locating key documentary contradictions.
  • Defense of High Officials and Businesspeople: We protect clients investigated for subsidy fraud, corporate crimes, misconduct in office (prevaricación), and document forgery. Our priority is to minimize reputational and media impact during the years the investigation may last ("media penalty").
  • Nullity Strategy: We exhaustively review the case seeking violations of fundamental rights (illegal wiretaps, null entries and searches) that may invalidate the proceedings.

Drug Trafficking and Organized Crime

Given the strategic geographic situation (Cadiz, Guadalquivir River), we defend large-scale Public Health cases. We assume the defense of those accused of belonging to a criminal organization and drug trafficking, fighting against the Anti-Drug Prosecutor's requests for extreme sentences and questioning the validity of telephone interventions and police geolocations.

Crimes against Persons and Jury Trials

We frequently intervene in trials with a Jury Court in the Seville Court for blood crimes (homicide and murder). Forensic oratory, judicial psychology, and the ability to connect with jury members are critical skills that are central to our approach in this kind of proceedings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which offences do you defend in Seville?
In Seville we work on economic crime macro-cases and the defence of senior officials and businesspeople, drug trafficking and organised crime, offences against the person before the jury court, fraud, gender violence and property offences.
Do you have a practice in Seville?
No. The firm has its single base in Madrid, at Calle Velázquez 27, and takes on defence work before the Seville courts with counsel travelling for each procedural step. The first consultation is by appointment and may be held by video call.
How do you approach a macro-case running to thousands of pages?
Defence in macro-cases calls for technological management of massive volumes of information — indexing the file and the intercepted communications — and a nullity strategy raised from the investigation stage, while unlawfully obtained evidence can still be excluded.
Do you act in Dos Hermanas, Utrera or Alcalá de Guadaíra?
Yes. We appear before the investigating courts of Seville and those of the Dos Hermanas, Alcalá de Guadaíra, Utrera, Lebrija and Marchena districts, as well as before the criminal courts and the Provincial Court of Seville.
