‘Working with Ontier is a real wonder, as they provide personalised attention at any time of day, and they manage the timing of the processes so that nothing goes wrong. They have a very extensive and meticulous knowledge of the procedures on which the lawsuits are developed, which means that they understand perfectly how to defend you. They are superior to the firms I have worked with previously.’
‘I love working with the Ontier team because they are lawyers who are easy to work with and understand. They explain each document and procedure of the lawsuit in non-legal language so that you understand the process, which I appreciate as a professional from another sector. They are a very friendly, attentive, kind and willing team. I would highlight the work of Silvia San Felipe Menéndez and Jorge Álvarez González.’
