GA_P advises Grupo Lamosa on the acquisition of Grupo Baldocer
Gómez-Acebo & Pombo has advised Grupo Lamosa on the acquisition of Grupo Baldocer for €425m (i.e. €354m at closing and a second payment of no less than €71m).
Grupo Lamosa is the world’s second largest ceramics producer, with a presence in 9 countries, focused on the manufacture and marketing of ceramic tiles, adhesives and insulation, with a track record of more than 130 years in the building materials industry.
Last year it manufactured 215.3 million square metres and had a global turnover of €1,700m. The group has a strong position in Latin America, with 19 production plants on the continent, and another in Spain – the Cerámicas Balcaire plant in Call d’Uixó, which is part of Roca Tiles, which the group has also owned since 2021 (an operation in which we also advised Grupo Lamosa).
The GA_P team advising on the process was formed by a team led by Pablo Fernández Cortijo and Constantino Pérez Salgado, partner and of counsel of Corporate and M&A, and Corporate associates Javier Reyna, Carolina Orri and Rodrigo Fernández-Chillón.

Contractual termination by mutual abandonment not claimed by any party?
The risks of applying the doctrine according to which a contract is deemed withdrawn from if neither party to the same appears to want it. Not only is this solution likely to be inconsistent with the parties' claims, but it also wrongly rules out other civil law options the parties could pursue upon dismissal of the action for declaration of termination.

The Unified Patent Court takes jurisdiction to hear a claim concerning the infringement of the UK national part of a European patent, even when the validity of the patent is being disputed
In a decision dated 18 July 2025, the Mannheim Division of the Court of First Instance of the Unified Patent Court took jurisdiction to hear a claim filed against three companies domiciled in Germany for infringement of a classic European patent with effect in Germany and the United Kingdom. The court's jurisdiction to hear the infringement of the UK national part of European patents is not affected by the fact that the validity of the patent is disputed by the defendants. However, this conclusion does not apply to Spanish national parts of European patents.

Key points on ‘reasonable adjustments’ due to worker incapacity
The declaration of the worker's incapacity does not automatically terminate the contract, unless the worker expresses his or her wish not to continue working. But permanent absolute incapacity and severe incapacity are incompatible with work. For the rest, the worker has (an extinguishment?) period of ten days to decide and the employer has (an extinguishment?) period of thirty days to decide. Companies with less than 25 employees can assess when the obligation is an excessive burden, but the rest is left to numerous factors, not always objectively measurable. The company must provide a suitable offer without knowing what this suitability depends on.

Offsetting employment claims: can a company offset them unilaterally?
If a collective action is brought to challenge the unilateral conduct of a company in the offsetting of salary claims through a payroll deduction, the amount of the debt and the existence of quantitative discrepancies must necessarily be questioned in order to be able to assess whether or not there is legal offsetting on the part of the employer. Only by admitting that the debt is a liquidated amount that is due and payable will the employer - or the employee, as the case may be - be able to offset the debt, but if the debt is not disputed, the way is open for the offsetting of wage claims.
