“ We must transmit serenity and confidence as in the end it is what the client is looking for in a lawyer. ”

Find out more about Anna

After working for several law firms where I trained myself in Civil and Commercial law fields, I developed the last years of my professional career in BDO, as account manager, and cooperating with the team of mergers and acquisitions, and also in Duran-Sindreu, as Director of the Commercial Law Department. In 2013 I decided to start working on my own and, after what I have learned, exercising the profession under the values in which I believe.

 

I love being a lawyer but my other passion is teaching, and the UOC (Open University of Catalonia) allows me developing it for more than twelve years, serving as a professor in matters relating to commercial law and in the Legal Advice Masters. I like offering a personalized and close service as well as getting deeply involved in the issues and the clients so that they feel supported and safe.

My hobbies are going back to my hometown, on the Costa Brava, whenever I can and there getting away from the daily workload enjoying with my family; also getting pleasure from the sea; profiting a nice dinner with some friends and, above all, meeting my son Alex’s smile in the morning or when I get home after a day of work.

My professional career began in 1998, when I started an internship in the City Council of Barcelona and trained in some small lawyers’ offices.

In 2002 I joined the firm Duran-Sindreu, where I led the birth, growth and consolidation of the Departments of Commercial Law, Litigation, Insolvency and Bankrupcty Law and New Technologies Law, which I managed until 2013 by combining these tasks with the exercise of the Bankruptcy Administration. That year I decided to become independent of large structures. I love my profession, in all its facets, from designing the most complex strategy to defending the most trivial injustices by wearing the toga. I always make my best efforts. I confess myself as an unconditional fan of Apple, and for the purpose of overcoming the stress that our profession may entail, I do practice sports, family life and occasionally I give long film sessions to myself as a present.

My specialisation in the field of labour law began once I completed my law studies at the University of Oviedo in 1999. This election is marked by a long career in the family firm located in those green Asturian lands, with an experience of forty-eight years rendering legal services and advice to small and medium enterprises (SME), which allowed me to acquire a wide training and, experience as well as core values of professionalism and closeness to the client, conditions so needed for the daily advice required by all SMEs. My jump into Barcelona occurred in October 2010, when I joined BDO Spain, a professional services international firm in which I was able to extend my knowledge to more specific needs and dynamics of large international business.

Undoubtedly what I am more passionate about in my job is the optimization of human resources in companies, by combining the most important values for a proper management of working time under the suitability of a remuneration system according to the economic capacity of each of them and thus achieve a lower rate of industrial disputes. After long hours of office I love disconnecting and removing the accumulated tension with a good yoga session, which allows me not only to adopt a good body physical alignment but also to cultivate values being as necessary as confidence, respect, empathy that always get good synergies in all spheres.

Member of the Barcelona Bar Association since 2015.

Master in Labour and Social Security Law.

Master in Human Resources.

EPJ in Commercial Law.

Fluent communication in Spanish, Catalan, English and Italian.

I offer advice in defending workers’ rights and also in defence of the companies rights for a simple reason. My interest in both fields is not contradictory but complimentary. The measures that favour the company will help create or maintain jobs that they have already created and the defence of workers’ rights will be the best way for a business to maintain a safe, happy and healthy work environment, in which to promote the growth of the company itself from a social perspective and, again, keeping a business productive.

I’m passionate about the 90s – my childhood decade – and all the culture that revolves around it. I love to go hiking in the mountains with my dog ​​”Gaspard” and sharing the journey with family and friends.

I have been skiing since I was very young and I practiced boxing during my teen years.

It would make me immensely happy to be able to teach at University in the field of Labour Law and Social Security at some point in my life.

I began my professional career doing my academic internship at the “Ilustre Colegio de la Abogacía de Barcelona”, assigned to the Legal Guidance Service and the Free Justice Processing Service. I did my professional internship at the Brox Advocats law firm, where I did the internship and later performed the functions of the legal profession. In those early years, during the first court hearings that I held as a lawyer, my vocation as a procedural lawyer arose.

Subsequently, I started practicing law on my own, which I combine with the service of defense and free legal assistance in the “Ilustre Colegio de la Abogacía de Barcelona”. In 2015 I joined as a lawyer in the firm Fuester Güell, where I had the opportunity to grow professionally in different legal areas and I was able to enhance my specialization as a litigation lawyer.

Now, in Auris Advocats, I take on the challenge of leading the litigation department; with the aim of constantly providing a legal service of the highest quality, based on experience, proximity, efficiency, rigor and technical solvency.

In my free time, to disconnect, I always try to spend quality time with family and friends; I also like to enjoy music, reading, cinema and sports, especially swimming and hiking.
