PHARMACEUTICALS AND HEALTHCARE
Lawyers specialized in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sector
The regulation of the “Ley del Medicamento” and the needs of pharmaceutical companies in the area of industrial property, especially the registration of trademarks and the obtaining of patents, constitute a large part of the legal advice needs of companies in this sector.
Our firm has been linked to the world of intellectual property (IP) for more than 40 years. Our managing partner José Luis Casajuana Espinosa started as a lawyer in the prestigious patent and trademark firm PONS before founding JL Casajuana Abogados. Hence, our trajectory has always gone hand in hand with the progress and development of intellectual property, a field in which we have advised some of the most relevant clients that this firm has had.
We have also assisted clients with problems related to the healthcare industry. Among our achievements, our partner Gustavo López Muñoz y Larraz obtained the largest compensation awarded in Spain for a medical malpractice matter.
To solve all the needs of companies in the pharmaceutical and health sector requires a team of lawyers with specialists in different areas. Our multidisciplinary organization sectioned by departments allows for this:
This is a highly regulated sector, subject to national and community regulations. From our administrative law department we assist in obtaining licenses and authorizations relevant to each case.
