The 2025 editions of The Best Lawyers in Spain™ and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in Spain™ recognize the professional excellence of 5,833 lawyers. These recognitions are based entirely on peer review. Our process is designed to capture, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical and legal practice areas.
Additional recognitions are also awarded to individual lawyers with the highest overall peer feedback for a specific practice area and geographic region in a Best Lawyers edition. The most recent edition of The Best Lawyers in Spain™ also recognized 197 lawyers as “Lawyer of the Year” honorees. Visit our research timelines to stay up to date on future editions and nominate a lawyer today for consideration in the next round of awards.
Best Lawyers also recognizes firm-wide talent in select regions through “Law Firm of the Year” awards. In the most recent edition, 19 of these recognitions were presented.

"Law Firm of the Year" awards recognize a single top firm for its work in a specific legal practice area nationwide. Awards are determined based on a handful of factors, including lawyer feedback, the number of lawyers included in Best Lawyers for that firm and practice area, the number of office locations a firm has, historical analysis of the firm's "Lawyer of the Year" awards, materials submitted by firms and the firm's overall scope and areas of expertise.
