Your Attorney
José Manuel Sánchez Berenguer
- Attorney

Hello, I’m José Manuel. Attorney.
I work with people who have been sold a car that is not in the condition that was promised.
Whether due to the vehicle’s condition, the warranty, the contract, fraud, or simply because no one properly explained what they were signing.
It doesn’t matter if it was from a private party, a company, or a dealership.
What matters to me is that you don’t face this alone.

- Common Situations
If you have experienced any of these situations... you're in the right place
-
The Workshop Nightmare: They sold you a "perfect" car that now lives at the repair shop. Those constant failures are hidden defects, and the seller knew it.
-
The Phantom Warranty: The seller or dealership refuses to cover a breakdown, ignoring the legal warranty or the contract you signed. Their excuses won't pay the bills.
-
The Vanishing Seller: It was all smiles until you paid. Now they don't answer the phone. This isn't bad luck, it smells like fraud.
-
The Contract Trap: You signed a sales contract full of clauses you didn't understand and that now work against you. That doesn't leave you defenseless.
-
The Used Car Deception: Manipulated odometer readings, hidden serious accidents, or administrative liens that prevent you from using the car. The law is on your side.
- Cases we handle
My services as an automotive specialist
I am not a generalist law firm. I don’t handle divorces in the morning and traffic tickets in the afternoon. My only battlefield is vehicle-related problems.
This approach allows me to provide you with a direct solution for each case.
Hidden defect claims
These are serious defects that the car already had when you bought it, but that were not visible. The seller has a legal obligation to be liable for them.
Your outcome: We force the return of part of your money (price reduction), full refund in exchange for the car, or compensation for repairs.
Scams and fraud in vehicle sales
From false documentation to cars that simply don't exist. Scams require decisive action.
Your outcome: We initiate legal proceedings, both civil and criminal, to recover your money and hold those responsible accountable.
Claims against repair shops and dealerships
Poorly done repairs, inflated invoices, or refusal to return your vehicle. A repair shop must also comply with the law and their work.
Your outcome: We force proper completion of repairs, adjust invoices to what was agreed upon, and defend you against any abusive practices. Don't let the repair shop become a second nightmare.
Warranty claims on used cars
The law gives you a minimum legal warranty. If the seller refuses to comply, it's not your problem, it's theirs.
Your outcome: We make them honor the contract and pay for repairs, or face a lawsuit.
Defense of your consumer rights
Dealerships and professional sellers have strict obligations. When they don't fulfill them, the law protects you.
Your outcome: We void abusive clauses and defend your consumer rights to restore balance.
- The process
How do we work as automotive specialist attorneys?
1. Legal consultation and guidance

We analyze your case: contract, evidence, expert reports. In this initial consultation I'll tell you the truth, without sugar-coating. You'll know if you have real chances of winning and how much you can recover. Zero nonsense.
2. We define the legal strategy

Most sellers react when they receive an official communication from a specialized law firm. We seek a quick and favorable settlement for you without setting foot in court. Although it's not always possible.
3. going after them

If the seller digs in, we don't hesitate. We file a solid lawsuit so a judge will force them to comply. This is where my specialization makes the difference.

Some of the most frequently asked questions
¿Qué es un abogado de coches y qué hace?
An automotive attorney is a specialist in everything related to vehicle problems: hidden defects, accidents, claims against dealerships or insurance companies… Basically, they defend your rights as a buyer or owner and ensure you don’t get scammed or lose money.
¿Realmente vale la pena reclamar por un coche?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I won’t waste your time or money. If I see that the cost of the claim exceeds the benefit, I’ll be the first to tell you. By filling out this 2-minute form, we can tell you if it’s worth pursuing a claim.
¿Qué plazo tengo para reclamar los vicios ocultos?
The legal deadline is dangerously short, we’re talking about 6 months. Each day that passes, your right weakens and the seller wins. If you have a problem, the best time is now.
¿Y si le compré el coche a un particular y no a una empresa?
You still have rights. The law establishes basic protection in sales contracts between private parties for hidden defects. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
Me preocupa el coste. ¿Cuánto cuesta la consulta con un abogado especialista?
The initial consultation to analyze your case and give you an action plan costs €121 (VAT incl.). It’s a minimal investment to know if you can recover thousands of euros. In the consultation we give you a clear action plan and in many cases, just by following our advice, you can skip the extrajudicial claim and save yourself from hiring an attorney.
¿Qué pasa si mi coche tiene un problema justo después de comprarlo?
Nothing’s wrong… if you act quickly. The first months are key to claiming hidden defects. The sooner we detect the problem and make the claim, the more chances you have of getting your money back or having the car fixed without you paying a euro.
¿Puedo reclamar si el coche está de segunda mano?
Yes! The law also protects buyers of used cars. There are rights that don’t expire just because the car isn’t new. The important thing is to identify the hidden defects and act before the legal deadline passes.
