JOSÉ LUIS BARRERA LLORCA, ASSOCIATE LAWYER AT CORTÉS, ABOGADOS HAS BEEN AWARDED THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF LAW.

Last Thursday, on 21 September, José Luis Barrera Llorca, an associate lawyer at CORTÉS ABOGADOS obtained his PhD in Law from Ramon Llull University (ESADE Law School, Barcelona), Deusto University (Bilbao) and Pontificia de Comillas University (Madrid) with the maximum rating of Outstanding “Cum Laude”. The thesis he defended: “The preventive waiver as a decisional remedy in Spanish Civil Law” deals with the intended nature of the resolutory faculty as well as the limits to a possible waiver of the resolution as a solution. The study is of particular interest in the field of negotiation of the Share Purchase Agreements and business transfers (Business Sale and Purchase Agreements), where it is common for the parties to design a system of remediation against non-compliance that goes beyond, and even singularly derogates, that which is set forth under the law.
