About the extradition lawyer
Yes. An extradition lawyer can request the denial of extradition if the requesting country does not guarantee a fair trial, if the crime has expired, or if there is a risk of political persecution or human rights violations.
It includes urgent legal assistance, defense before national and international courts, preparation of appeals, treaty review, and international coordination with other firms.
We collaborate with law firms worldwide, offering international coverage and a defense tailored to the laws of each country involved.
Passive extradition occurs when Spain receives a request from another country.
Active extradition occurs when Spain requests the surrender of a person who is outside the country. In both cases, our firm offers comprehensive and personalized legal representation.
