‘A very solid team with professionals of diverse experience. Their technical solidity refers not only to the procedural issue itself, but also to the technical content, being able to advise on the best strategies even in the pre-litigation phase and in corporate processes, anticipating potential future conflict situations or seeking the best way to manage the dispute when it occurs.’
‘Salvio Codes is a very brilliant professionally. He is accessible and open to dialogue.’
‘The litigation and arbitration department of CMS Albiñana y Suárez de Lezo stands out for its technical excellence, availability, agility, and, above all, for understanding how the business works, which makes its advice especially useful in the client['s day-to-day operations. In addition, the closeness of the treatment makes the management of judicial procedures and extrajudicial matters easier than in other cases, which in turn leads to absolute collaboration between the client and the firm. It is a department with the capacity to take on any judicial, arbitration or extrajudicial matter, regardless of its complexity or volume, and which is perfectly compatible with the rest of the firm's departments, which makes its advice very complete and multidisciplinary.’

‘The CMS team responds quickly, clearly and comprehensively. The advice received is of high quality in both form and content, which indicates the high level of involvement of the senior members. The collaboration tools are the usual ones (office suite), but the team competently uses advanced word processing functions to highlight changes effectively and transparently.’
