Esther Susin Carrasco

Esther Susin Carrasco is the founder of E Susin International Legal Office, the Spanish practice recognised as Family Law Firm of the Year in Spain at the 2024 Corporate INTL Global Awards. The firm specialises in national and international family law, and the award reflects its reputation for handling sensitive personal and family matters with both technical rigour and a genuinely human approach.

Ms Susin leads a practice that addresses the full spectrum of family law issues. Its work encompasses separation and divorce, paternity and parental authority, matrimonial property settlements, succession and inheritance, the protection of vulnerable and incapacitated elderly people, and cases involving domestic and gender-based violence. This range allows the firm to support clients through many of the most difficult moments in their personal lives, from the breakdown of a relationship to the safeguarding of family members who can no longer protect their own interests.

A defining feature of the practice is its emphasis on a human-centred approach that looks beyond the strictly legal dimensions of a dispute. The firm offers personalised support designed to help clients through conflictive rupture situations, working wherever possible towards constructive solutions rather than escalating conflict. To do so effectively, it collaborates with a multidisciplinary team that includes civil law academics, psychiatrists, psychologists and accounting experts, enabling it to address the emotional, financial and technical aspects of complex family matters in a coordinated way.

The international dimension of the firm's work is central to its identity. Cross-border family situations, where spouses, children or assets are spread across more than one country, raise particularly intricate questions of jurisdiction and applicable law, and Ms Susin's focus on international family law positions the firm to guide clients through them. Her standing in the field is reflected in memberships of professional bodies including the International Academy of Family Law and in her recognition within international legal directories, underlining the firm's credibility among peers and referrers.

Recognition as Family Law Firm of the Year in Spain places E Susin International Legal Office among the advisers the Corporate INTL Global Awards are designed to highlight, those that combine expertise with a consistent commitment to their clients. Under Ms Susin's leadership, the firm continues to represent individuals and families in national and cross-border matters, pairing specialist family law knowledge with the multidisciplinary, personalised support that these deeply personal cases demand.
