Cristina Santos “Así piensan los abogados y juristas del futuro” | El Confidencial
Cristina Santos: study by El Confidencial and El Observatorio ‘Así piensan los abogados y juristas del futuro’, a survey that reflects the opinion of students on large law firms, competitive examinations or joining a law firm.
“The main challenge currently facing national law firms, such as Gómez-Acebo & Pombo, is to be able to convey to candidates that being part of a national firm does not mean that they cannot have an international experience, which is so highly valued by students completing their training. Moreover, the fact that we work at the firm’s headquarters, at the epicentre of decision-making, allows us greater flexibility to offer attractive careers and opportunities to our professionals. On the other hand, being a national law firm so well established in the market gives us many advantages in terms of positioning and the information candidates may know about us beforehand.

Supreme Court judgment on the Campelo wind farm: does it clear the path for wind energy in Galicia?
Supreme Court Judgment no. 316/2025 marks a turning point in the intense litigation surrounding wind energy projects in Galicia. While confirming its doctrine on the public consultation procedure, the Supreme Court clarifies that the fact that several wind farms share evacuation infrastructure does not, in and of itself, establish the existence of a single project for environmental purposes, contrary to what was previously held by the Galician High Court of Justice.

A first ranking mortgage does not prevent a creditor from accelerating loan maturity due to debtor insolvency
If the creditor has a secured claim (even if the debt is covered by the "value of the security", i.e. the claim is in the money), the debtor cannot avoid the effects of the to-term forfeiture by appealing to the existence of that security because the guarantee referred to in Article 1129(1) of the Civil Code (avoiding to-term forfeiture) must then be another additional guarantee.

La existencia de una hipoteca de primer rango no impide que el acreedor pueda declarar el vencimiento anticipado del plazo por insolvencia sobrevenida del deudor
Si el acreedor goza de una garantía real para la seguridad de su crédito (incluso si la deuda está cubierta por el «valor de la garantía», es decir, que el crédito está in the money), el deudor no puede evitar los efectos de la pérdida del plazo apelando a la existencia de aquella garantía real porque la garantía a que se refiere el artículo 1129.1.º del Código Civil (evitadora de la pérdida del plazo) deberá ser entonces otra garantía suplementaria.
