About Luis
Luis Blanquez trained across three countries and three legal traditions. He earned a J.D. through studies at Universidad de Zaragoza in Spain and Université de Nantes in France. He then pursued an LL.M. in European Business Law at the Universiteit van Amsterdam. Later studies at King’s College London added an LL.M. in European Competition Law. The sequence of degrees traces a clear thread: comparative legal training that spans continental and common-law systems.
That academic foundation led to a transatlantic practice. Blanquez is admitted to practice in California and in Spain. He holds current membership in the State Bar of California and practices as a lawyer at Bona Law PC. His classroom work in Madrid, Nantes, Amsterdam and London informs his work at the firm. He moved from study to practice without leaving behind the international perspective that shaped his training.
His educational choices point to particular areas of interest. Courses in European business law and competition law gave him exposure to antitrust frameworks, regulatory review, and transactional rules that govern cross-border commerce. In practice he handles matters where U.S. procedures and European regulatory regimes intersect. He advises on questions that touch on competition law principles, corporate arrangements, and compliance issues that arise when clients operate on both sides of the Atlantic.
Colleagues describe his approach as methodical. He breaks complex regulatory schemes into discrete issues. He writes clearly and prefers practical solutions. Cases do not become abstractions for him; they become a set of legal and factual problems to solve. That orientation reflects his academic training, which emphasized comparative analysis and statutory interpretation across different legal systems.
At Bona Law PC, Blanquez draws on his dual admission to serve clients who face transnational challenges. He represents interests that require an understanding of both California law and Spanish legal frameworks. He also works on matters where European competition principles are relevant to U.S. business decisions. His practice sits at the intersection of international regulation and domestic enforcement.
As of 2026 he remains an active member of the State Bar of California and continues to practice at Bona Law PC. He currently concentrates on cross-border business and competition matters that involve both U.S. and European law.
