NLC Abogados and Lexant seal Spain–Italy alliance
Spanish firm NLC Abogados has entered into a strategic alliance with Milan-based multidisciplinary law firm Lexant SBtA to strengthen cross-border legal services for companies, financial intermediaries and investors operating between Spain and Italy.
The agreement aims to provide coordinated legal advice in both transactional matters and day-to-day business operations, responding to the increasing demand for efficient solutions in international engagements that require a strong understanding of both legal systems.
Through the alliance, clients will benefit from closer coordination between teams, more agile decision-making and unified case management, helping reduce operational complexity in cross-border matters.
The collaboration combines the specialised and client-focused approach of NLC Abogados with Lexant’s multidisciplinary structure and operational scale across the main areas of business law. The firms expect the partnership to support companies seeking to establish operations or expand their presence in the Spanish and Italian markets.
The alliance will also strengthen the firms’ ability to advise credit institutions, financial intermediaries and investment funds, particularly in banking and financial law and credit portfolio management. In addition, the collaboration will reinforce regulatory and compliance capabilities in areas such as data protection, cybersecurity, anti-money laundering and organisational governance.
Andrea Davide Arnaldi, founding partner of Lexant, said the alliance “strengthens our international vocation and consolidates our positioning in the banking and financial law sector”, highlighting its role in supporting clients in areas including non-performing loans (NPLs), loan management and regulatory compliance.
Valentín García García, partner at NLC Abogados, added that the collaboration with Lexant will allow the firm to support clients expanding into Italy “with the assurance of top-tier local legal advice across the main areas of law,” while enhancing its services in key areas such as credit portfolio management.
The partnership forms part of a long-term strategy to build stable international collaboration networks based on quality, reliability and continuity of service.
