Service Details

Seizure of Goods

This service is available across Spain

Who Is This Service For?

Companies transporting goods across Europe can find themselves in difficulties if their lorry is stopped and impounded for an alleged infraction. This can occur simply when crossing a bridge over the weight limit or some other infraction. Of course, speed is of the essence in order to get the goods back on the road and delivered as soon as possible. 

So, if you find yourself in a situation where your goods have been seized—be it merchandise, vehicles, or other property—under suspicion of legal infractions such as customs duty evasion or regulatory noncompliance, this service is designed for you. 

Clients typically face challenges such as navigating complex legal frameworks, dealing with the bureaucracy of Spanish enforcement agencies, and the distress of asset loss. 

This legal assistance aims to alleviate these problems by employing a strategic approach to recover seized goods, contesting the seizure, or mitigating associated penalties.

Who Is This Service For?

Procedure

The legal procedure commences with an assessment of the seizure notice to identify any procedural errors or grounds for contesting the seizure. We then file a formal objection or appeal, depending on the case specifics, within the legal time limits. 

This might involve administrative appeals to the agency that enacted the seizure or legal actions before the courts. 

We ensure due process is followed, representing you in negotiations or court proceedings, and if necessary, we can engage in litigation to challenge the legality of the goods' seizure. 

Throughout this process, we maintain transparent communication, updating you on progress and developments.
