On July 14, the Law 15/2022, of July 12, came into effect. This law aspires to be the backbone of anti-discrimination law in our country, extensively developing various fields of action derived from Article 14 of the Constitution, which aims to guarantee and promote the right to equal treatment and non-discrimination of people.

The European Court has responded to the questions raised by the Barcelona Court of Appeal in the sense of specifying the time limit applicable to the claim for mortgage expenses. 

Until 2015, legal entities (limited or public companies, political parties, associations, etc.) could not be subject to criminal liability. In other words, they could not be convicted for committing a crime. This changed with the reform of the Penal Code, which opened the door for certain crimes to be directly attributed to the legal entity, in addition to the natural person who committed the criminal act within the organization.

There are few legal terms as casually used as these two. Not surprisingly, they are often incorporated as "almost-standard" clauses in thousands of sales contracts, without realizing the legal and economic consequences that the inclusion of one term or the other may entail for the signatories.

Carrying out proper debt collection management is essential for all businesses. This is more evident in exceptional circumstances like the present, where cash flow is the focus of any company and managers and owners realize its importance for business survival. Often, this task becomes laborious for many of them, who have to deal with clients who fail to meet their payment commitments, leading to financial problems for their business. This can affect their growth, as sometimes they must resort to alternative financing sources to continue existing and, in the worst case, can be dragged to closure due to lack of liquidity. For this reason, it is very important that every company has a debt collection policy, implementing methodologies that allow it to be more effective and, consequently, avoid the serious problems that delinquency entails.

In 2015, with the reform introduced by Law 15/2015 on Voluntary Jurisdiction, the possibility of carrying out divorces before a Notary was approved.

This has allowed other legal operators to authorize divorces, benefiting both the courts, always overloaded with work, and individuals, as it avoids the need to resort to a slow and economically inefficient justice system.

When we buy a property, we usually take great care to ensure it is registered in our name. Similarly, we should attach the same importance to registering a trademark.

First of all, let's clarify a point that is often misunderstood: a trademark is not "patented", but "registered". Although both trademarks and patents are part of Industrial Property, they are not the same and should not be confused.

Royal Decree-Law 5/2023 of June 28 has introduced significant changes in the area of labor leave, expanding the rights of reconciliation and ensuring equality of treatment and opportunities between men and women at work. These updates have been the necessary response to the European Directive 2019/1158, which aims to balance the family and professional life of parents and caregivers.
