Ceca Magán Abogados adds Adela Martín and Enrique Viola as 'counsels'

By Heidi Maldonado

Ceca Magán Abogados announced the addition of Adela Martín and Enrique Viola as new counsels in the Tax department at its Barcelona office. Both have extensive experience in national and international taxation, family businesses, and tax litigation.

These additions reflect the firm’s commitment to consolidating a tax practice capable of supporting its clients in both strategic decision-making and the prevention and resolution of disputes with the Tax Authorities. The combination of tax planning, specialized advice, and representation in tax proceedings allows the firm to address clients’ needs from a comprehensive perspective, aligned with their business and wealth management objectives.

Esteban Ceca, managing partner of Ceca Magán Abogados, emphasized that “strengthening our teams involves incorporating professionals with solid track records, specialization, and the ability to understand our clients’ real needs. Taxation has a direct impact on investments and business continuity. The arrival of Adela and Enrique reinforces our capacity to offer rigorous solutions, anticipate tax challenges, and support companies and business families in strategically important decisions, combining technical excellence with a comprehensive understanding of their needs.”

Miguel Lobón, managing partner of the Catalonia office, stated that “Catalonia is a strategic priority for Ceca Magán, and we want it to remain one of the firm’s growth engines. We are building a team that combines specialization, a personal touch, and in-depth knowledge of the Catalan business landscape, with a particular focus on family businesses. The addition of Adela and Enrique strengthens our ability to support clients in decisions that shape the future of their businesses: growth, succession planning, or defending their interests in tax disputes. Both bring experience and sound judgment, but also a shared approach to the legal profession: being fully committed to each project and working as a team to provide practical solutions for business owners.”

Two complementary profiles to strengthen the Tax practice. Enrique Viola has over 20 years of experience in tax planning and international taxation. He holds a law degree from the University of Barcelona and a Master’s degree in Tax Administration (AGT) from ESADE. Throughout his career, he has advised family businesses, high-net-worth individuals, and athletes, as well as on corporate restructuring operations. His addition strengthens the firm’s ability to address complex tax issues related to wealth management, business activity, and corporate transactions. His track record has also been recognized by leading legal directories.

“I am joining Ceca Magán with the opportunity to contribute to the development of a tax practice focused on providing rigorous solutions tailored to each client’s specific circumstances. In a context where tax decisions are closely linked to business and wealth management strategy, it is essential to combine technical expertise with a comprehensive business perspective,” stated Enrique Viola.

Adela Martín Márquez also has over 20 years of experience defending companies in complex proceedings before the Tax Authorities. She specializes in tax and administrative litigation, with experience in tax audits, penalty proceedings, and court cases. Her practice also includes strategic advice for family businesses, corporate governance, conflict prevention, and the tax and legal preparation of succession processes. She holds a law degree from Pompeu Fabra University and a master’s degree in General Taxation from the same university, as well as specialized training in Economic Criminal Law from Abat Oliba CEU University.

“Supporting a company when a tax dispute arises requires rigorous legal analysis and a deep understanding of its circumstances. My goal is to help clients face these proceedings with the utmost preparation, defending their interests and helping them make well-informed decisions, also from a preventative perspective,” said Adela Martín Márquez.

With these additions, the firm continues to advance its growth and specialization strategy, reinforcing its capabilities to respond to the tax challenges of companies and consolidating advice that combines technical excellence, business vision and closeness to the client.
