CCS Abogados

What CCS Abogados does

CCS Abogados (legal name: CCS Abogados Corporativos S.L.) is a privately held Spanish full-service law firm headquartered in A Coruña, with additional offices in Madrid and Vigo. The firm operates across 12 practice areas — corporate consulting, corporate restructuring and insolvency, tax, competition/finance/consumption, litigation and arbitration, civil, criminal and compliance, labor, energy and renewables, administrative and regulated sectors, pharmaceutical, and real estate/urban planning/environment — and is led by a team of 40 lawyers under Managing Partners Jaime Concheiro Fernández and Carlos Seoane Domínguez. Its leadership roster includes a former Minister of Justice of Spain (Francisco Caamaño, Of Counsel), a former Director General of the Competition Defense Service of the Community of Madrid (Francisco Marcos, Of Counsel), and a Professor of Financial and Tax Law at Universidad de A Coruña (Miguel Caamaño), giving the firm unusual regulatory and academic credentials for a mid-tier firm.

The firm is differentiated primarily by its competition law and cartel damages litigation practice, acting as the chosen counsel for major Spanish industry associations in collective actions: CEHAT (over 1,400 hotel companies) against Booking.com, CETM (over 5,500 transport companies and 37,000 trucks, with €780M in total claim value) in the Truck Manufacturers Cartel, various associations in the Car Cartel (over 5,000 claimants), health services from multiple Autonomous Communities in the Adult Diaper Cartel, and Italian associations in the Italian Cardboard Cartel. The firm has launched a Litigation Data Intelligence (LDI) practice to support these complex multi-claimant matters and recently partnered with German firm SGP Schneider Geiwitz and litigation funder ALI to extend its reach into cross-border EU cartel damages work.

CCS Abogados generates revenue through professional fees billed on a quote-based, multi-year engagement basis typical of Spanish law firms; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm combines direct enterprise sales with a channel model that funnels collective-action engagements through industry association partnerships, and supplements client acquisition with thought leadership via a long-running blog, participation in IE Law School and competition law conferences, and earned media coverage in El País, Expansion, Cinco Días, and Hosteltur. The firm reported €16.4 million in revenue for FY2025 — a ~25% year-over-year growth rate and approximately 140% cumulative growth over two fiscal years — earning it the #24 position in the Expansion Law Firm Ranking and inclusion in the Financial Times FT 1000 Europe's Fastest Growing Companies 2026.

Broad incumbents

• Clifford Chance: Global Magic Circle law firm where CCS Managing Partner Jaime Concheiro previously worked. Competes for high-end cartel damages and competition mandates; relevant given talent flow and similar competition practice focus.
• Bird & Bird: International law firm with strong competition, technology, and life sciences practices in Spain and across Europe. Competes with CCS in competition/antitrust matters and serves similar multinational clients.
• Garrigues: Spain's largest domestic law firm with comprehensive tax, corporate, and competition practices. Competes directly with CCS across multiple practice areas including tax (where Miguel Caamaño has academic overlap) and competition law.
• Hogan Lovells: Global law firm with leading competition/antitrust practice, particularly active in cartel damages litigation across Europe. Direct competitor for high-stakes cartel damages work that CCS pursues.
• Gómez-Acebo & Pombo: Established Spanish full-service law firm competing with CCS across tax, corporate, and competition practice areas. Similar positioning as a top-tier domestic firm with international alliances.
• Pérez-Llorca: Spanish full-service law firm with recognized competition, tax, and litigation practices. Direct competitor in the Spanish market for similar client segments.
• Uría Menéndez: Top-tier Iberian law firm with strong competition, corporate, and litigation practices. Competes with CCS for sophisticated Spanish enterprise clients and cartel damages work.

Others

• Burford Capital: Largest publicly traded litigation finance firm. While not a direct legal services competitor, comparable as a counterparty/fund in cartel damages matters where litigation funding is used (similar to CCS's ALI partnership).

Direct peers

• SGP Schneider Geiwitz: German law firm that obtained the landmark German Booking.com judgment and is co-litigating the Spanish case with CCS. Closely comparable in cartel damages litigation focus and cross-border collective action expertise.
