**In short:** Negotiation and settlement agreements: we negotiate with the other side and draft the settlement with guarantees, a payment schedule and consequences for breach. We handle it ourselves from start to finish, with professionals from our network, with a written quote before we start and your case visible in your client area. We ask for the contracts, the messages exchanged and one figure: the minimum you would accept.

### WHAT IS INCLUDED AND WHAT IS NOT PROMISED

A badly drafted settlement is worth little: if it does not say what happens when the other side defaults, you will end up litigating anyway. What gives a settlement value is being enforceable without reopening the merits.

What it includes: assessment of what is at stake and of the real room for agreement; negotiation with the other side or its representative; drafting the agreement with guarantees and consequences for breach. What it does not include: we cannot guarantee the other side accepts, and we do not execute it before a notary without your decision: notarial costs are quoted separately.

#### DOCUMENTS YOU WILL NEED

- Documents about the dispute and what is claimed.
- Earlier offers or communications between the parties.
- Full details of the other party.

#### INDICATIVE TIMING

We answer your enquiry within 1 working day and send the written quote within 2 working days.

Once your documents are complete, we prepare the file between 3 and 10 working days.

A negotiation usually closes within weeks; executing it as a public deed adds the notary’s own timing.

See [the pricing page](https://iberfacil.es/en/pricing) for how we charge this kind of matter.

### How it works

1. **WHAT IS AT STAKE** We assess what is at stake, what you can realistically obtain and what room for agreement there is before sitting down with anyone.
2. **DOCUMENTS AND YOUR MINIMUM FIGURE** We ask for the contracts, the messages exchanged and one figure: the minimum you would accept.
3. **WE NEGOTIATE FOR YOU** We negotiate with the other side or their representative and pass each offer on to you with numbers.
4. **SIGNED AGREEMENT** We draft the settlement agreement with guarantees and consequences for breach, and leave it signed.

#### What to have at hand

- Documents about the dispute and what is claimed
- Earlier offers or communications between the parties
- Full details of the other party

### Frequently asked questions

CAN THE AGREEMENT BE DIRECTLY ENFORCEABLE?

Executed as a public deed or approved by a court, yes. We explain what each route adds.

WHAT IF THEY DEFAULT AFTERWARDS?

That is why the agreement carries guarantees and consequences. If they still default, it is enforced.

DO YOU CHARGE IF THERE IS NO AGREEMENT?

The fixed part yes, because the work is done either way. The variable only if there is an agreement.
