We handle the dissolution and liquidation of your association following a resolution of the Extraordinary General Meeting, a ground set out in the statutes or a final court judgment. We check the quorum and the majority, that the documents are complete and, above all, what happens to the remaining assets: distributing them among the members is PROHIBITED (art. 18.2 LODA, the Spanish Associations Act); they must go to another non-profit entity with similar aims. This closes the cycle of the associations cluster.
