He has broad experience as a judicial advisor, representing and defending the public administration and its organisations and entities, especially in the contentious-administrative area and before the Constitutional Court, having worked in multiple areas and sectors of public law, such as sourcing and outsourcing, administrative infractions and penalties, grants and subsidies, public service, public assets, forced expropriation, environment, education and cultural heritage, associations and public law corporations, labour administration and the Administration of Justice, among others.
He has extensive experience assisting students interested in sitting public servant entrance exams and as an advisor to public servants in the state, regional and local administrations, both in public bodies (Madrid Institute for Public Administration, Ministry of Justice), and for private academies. He carries out this work alongside his work at the Firm.
