Where your case is heard

The provincial Court of Appeal

The Provincial Court of Bizkaia sits in six divisions with 21 judges, two of them specialised, all in the capital.

Companies and the commercial registry

Bizkaia has its own commercial registry, the Registro Mercantil y de Bienes Muebles de Bizkaia/Vizcaya, at Avenida de Madariaga, 24. Incorporating, changing directors or winding up a company is filed there.

If your claim is against a bank

In Bizkaia a claim over unfair mortgage terms goes to a specialised court: the Tribunal de Instancia de Bilbao. Sección Civil. Plaza número 15, which hears nothing else.

Before filing a dismissal claim

Before suing over a dismissal you must attempt conciliation, and in Bizkaia that is done at the Seccion de Conciliacion de la Delegacion Territorial de Trabajo y Seguridad Social (el tramite se denomina oficialmente 'Conciliaciones Laborales', codigo 0607001). El Pais Vasco no usa siglas propias tipo SMAC, UMAC o CMAC para la conciliacion individual, run by the Delegacion Territorial de Trabajo y Seguridad Social del Territorio Historico correspondiente (Araba/Alava, Bizkaia o Gipuzkoa), organo periferico del Departamento de Economia, Trabajo y Empleo del Gobierno Vasco, que actua como autoridad laboral. El PRECO (Acuerdo Interprofesional sobre Procedimientos Voluntarios para la Resolucion de Conflictos Laborales), gestionado por el Consejo de Relaciones Laborales / Lan Harremanen Kontseilua (CRL-LHK), es la unica via para cumplir la conciliacion previa en CONFLICTOS COLECTIVOS, y en conflictos individuales solo cuando lo prevea el convenio colectivo aplicable.
