ECIJA "our goal is to get projects off the ground".
Since its foundation in 1997, ECIJA has been a benchmark in legal advice in entertainment, technology and media, adapting to the growth of the audiovisual sector in Spain. It currently advises on more than 50 projects a year, including major productions such as The Departed, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon and documentaries about Aitana and Alejandro Sanz.
The firm offers a 360° service for producers of all sizes, combining corporate, litigation, tax and labour management with a highly specialised team. With a presence in several cities in Spain, its approach is inspired by US models, even helping to find financing without intervening in production.
Key challenges in the sector include legislative uncertainty with the Artist's Statute and the new Film Law, as well as the irruption of artificial intelligence and the need for robust incentive and compliance systems. ECIJA is positioned as a strategic ally, combining experience, proximity and business vision to support producers in a constantly evolving environment.
