In Lago Abogados, law firm in Murcia, we provide legal services to individuals and companies in Financial Law, in the areas of Banking and Insurance.

Among the most frequent cases entrusted to us in this area we can mention the claims against banks and saving banks due to irregular sale of complex financial products at retail level such as Swaps or Preferred Shares (Participaciones Preferentes). If you have acquired one of these financial products, it is very advisable that a lawyer reviews your case and circumstances and assesses the feasibility of a judicial claim against the bank based on an irregular sale of complex financial products. This claim would be aimed to recover all the economic losses caused by the financial product irregularly sold.

In the area of Insurance Law the most frequent cases are the claims against insurance companies due to unfair denials of insurance coverage. Very often the insurance companies make an unbalanced and interested construal of the insurance policies in order to justify a denial of insurance coverage. If your insurance company has denied the insurance coverage that you are entitled to, it is very important that a lawyer reviews the insurance policy and the circumstances of the loss in order to assess the feasibility of a judicial claim.

When filing a claim against banks, saving banks and insurance companies, it is important to take into account an existing alternative to the judicial procedure: The Committees for the Defense of Clients of Financial Services created at the Bank of Spain and the General Insurance and Pension Funds Directorate. By means of this alternative procedure, the claiming Client can obtain a Resolution upholding the claim and avoiding the Courts and judicial costs. Even though this Resolution issued by the competent Committee will not be directly enforceable against the bank or insurance company at hand, it constitutes a key instrument to be used in a further negotiation with the financial entity or as an expert report in an eventual judicial procedure.
