Elena Crespo Lorenzo
I have been a family lawyer for more than 20 years and Partner of the Law Firm “Crespo Law” in Barcelona since 2007. When graduating from the University of Navarra, I realized that my vocation was Family Law, a legal area where I feel that I can offer my clients the best of myself.
Also, within the Department of Family, I count on the work of Julia Canals, a great lawyer and my right hand. This combination allows us to offer each client a true 'tailor-made service' for their cases: perfectionism and the pursuit of excellence in my daily practice are the principles on which I base my work. It is the only way to help families in the way they deserve.
About me
Working in an international firm, I am used to working efficiently, meticulously and for demanding clients, offering personalized advice for each client.
On the other hand, I belong to the "International Society of Family Law", I am also a member of the Spanish Association of Family Lawyers (AEAFA), a collaborating lawyer of the international organization Reunite against the international abduction of minors, a member of the Euro-American Academy of Family Law and of the Association of Collaborative Family Lawyers. Also thanks to my professional experience I have been chosen as a professor to teach in the Postgraduate of Parental Coordination at the University of Madrid (UDIMA).
I have extensive experience in complex cases with international elements and I work throughout the national territory, especially with applications for changes of residence of minors, international child abduction, parenting plans, joint custody, cross-border visitation rights, etc. In addition, I have a Master's degree in Tax Management at ESADE, which allows me to provide advice to my clients on fiscal aspects after the break.
Outside the office, I like spending time with my two daughters, travelling, taking part in growth and personal development trainings and do mountain trekking on weekends.
