Eduardo Tous Granda holds a Doctorate in Commercial and Insurance Law from the Faculty of Law of the Complutense University of Madrid and is a member of the Illustrious Madrid Bar Association (Ilustre Colegio de Abogados de Madrid).
Throughout his professional career, he has devoted himself to commercial and corporate transactions, commercial litigation, and arbitration, and has presided over national and international arbitral tribunals. During this period, he also undertook a significant academic residency at Harvard Law School (United States) in order to further his research in Commercial and Insurance Law, delivering numerous papers at various international conferences.
In 2019, Eduardo defended his doctoral thesis in both Spanish and English, entitled “The Mutual Insurance Company in the 21st Century” (“La Mutua de Seguros en el Siglo XXI”), for which he was awarded the degree of Doctor with International Mention in Commercial Law, the grade of “Outstanding Cum Laude”, the prize of the Royal Spanish Academy of Doctors, and the Extraordinary Prize of the Faculty in Commercial Law.
His concurrent practice of Commercial Law and the expertise acquired during his doctoral studies led Eduardo to establish a law firm that would transcend traditional commercial legal advice, advocating a form of counsel that, in addition to meeting clients’ demands, would generate a positive impact on society and create value. Accordingly, in 2020, Eduardo founded SLA Legal Partners, with the principal aim of providing commercial legal advice in all its facets.
Furthermore, owing to the close ties he has maintained with academia since the preparation of his doctorate, he regularly publishes his research in specialised legal journals and collaborates as a lecturer at several nationally and internationally renowned universities.

In a social context in which professional success is measured in terms of economic profitability, SLA Legal Partners positions itself as a law firm with a disruptive vision, seeking to ensure that its clients not only attain economic profitability but also conduct their business activities within an environment of trust that enables them to generate value in the marketplace.
Convinced that the principal objective of any economic activity must be the creation of value together with the maximisation of profits, at SLA Legal Partners we are specialists in Private Law and, in particular, in Commercial Law in all its branches, which, combined with principles such as freedom of enterprise, responsibility, solidarity, perseverance, and respect for the environment, enables us to forge long-term relationships with our clients.
In this way, we accompany our clients throughout their entire journey, assisting them in achieving their business objectives while reinforcing their standing as socially leading enterprises, without forgoing the maximisation of profits.
Our global outlook on the business world and our firm commitment to disseminating our values through the law enable us to provide legal advice to both Spanish and foreign clients, fostering bonds of trust across multiple jurisdictions.
In keeping with our corporate values, SLA Legal Partners is also committed to supporting individual entrepreneurs and emerging companies, commonly referred to as Start-Ups, that require legal advice in order to develop their economic activity and that, like us, share the desire to generate value within society.
Continuing the commitment of our founding partner—International Doctor of Laws from the Complutense University of Madrid following a pivotal academic residency at Harvard University, subsequently distinguished with the Extraordinary Doctorate Prize of his class, the Extraordinary Prize of the Royal Academy of Doctors, and possessed of a solid background in the academic and legal spheres—we provide strategic legal advisory services across all branches of Commercial Law, accompanying our clients in the governing bodies of companies of every kind, in their international expansion, and in the advisory and resolution of the legal matters inherent to living law: that of business operators.
Educational institutions occupy a prominent place within the Firm; in particular, universities of the European Union, Central America, and the United States of America, which from the outset have formed part of our development. This has enabled us to acquire significant experience in the academic legal field, establishing us as the firm of reference for Spanish and international universities setting up operations within Spanish territory.
