Even though she always imagined herself working in the world of private business away from legal practice as a lawyer, she defines herself as someone who loves the courts. She says that “the more cases you handle, the more this profession draws you in”.

Nothing relaxes her more than going sailing with her family, as she finds the sea a haven where she can escape from modern technologies. Her other weakness on dry land is playing tennis, a sport which she has often played since she was a child.

Sixteen years into his career, he says that, although he has not yet made up his mind, he is passionate about his profession.

He is currently an associate lecturer in the Department of Private Law at the University of the Balearic Islands.

Her lengthy professional career has always been accompanied by a strong belief in instilling a value-based family education. This perspective has enabled her to interpret Family Law, a priori, from a position of conciliation.

She always makes room for reading and cinema in her daily routine. Creativity and constant experimentation in areas as varied as interior design and gastronomy provide constant are a source of diversion in her life.

Her first contact with Buades Legal took place while on her work placement in the master’s programme, and she has remained connected with the firm to this day. Her training as a social education teacher enables her to have a global vision of family law, which is one of her areas of expertise.

One of her passions is travelling, having travelled through much of South East Asia. Another of her favourite locations is the beach, where she loves to walk all year round, whilst reading a good book is one of her calmer passions.
