MENENDEZ & ASOCIADOS ABOGADOS is a law firm opened in 1996, based in Barcelona and which works exclusively in administrative, environmental and urban development law. Our clients are private companies and public authorities (including regional and local public enterprises) to which we offer services of legal advice. These consist of the issuing of opinions and reports, drafting contracts and agreements, monitoring of public authority procedures, including internal reviews, appeals to the administrative law courts and handling criminal proceedings for environmental offences. In addition to this we also draw up draft regulations (laws, decrees and local by-laws) for public authorities.
