The firm’s origins date back to 1927, when the lawyer and Doctor of Law Jaime Enseñat Alemany (Palma de Mallorca, 1899–1989) established himself in Madrid. Over the following decades he carried out intense activity both in the practice of law and in economic and industrial development, promoting foreign investment in Spain, mainly from the Italian Republic. In this regard, he acted as legal adviser in the establishment and expansion in Spain of important Italian companies and industrial groups, such as Sniace S.A., of which he was one of the founding shareholders and a director.

This tradition was continued by his son Sebastián Enseñat Velasco (Palma de Mallorca, 1930–2009) and by the firm’s current senior partner, Joaquín Fernández-Escribano Calsina, who substantially intensified the firm’s activity, establishing it as a leading point of reference for the various Italian companies, both public and private, arriving in Spain.
