TEAM: M1 Malaga

What a happy start to the New Year!

Maxima 1 Legal S.L. (M1 Legal) are pleased to advise all their clients that they are now regulated by the Claims Management Regulator in respect of regulated claims management activities.
This means that they can now take legal action on behalf of consumers against financial institutions such as banks and credit card companies for misrepresentation and unregulated lending which can potentially win huge compensation payouts for their clients.
This will be another side to their business which will be given a strong focus over the coming months under the branding of Bank Reclaims. Watch this space.

The battle continues against timeshare Resorts
M1 Legal currently have 470 cases in the courts and 245 are being prepared for submission. Furthermore, cases won on appeals are now being fast-tracked through the lower courts.
