After carrying out professional practices in the General State Attorney's Office (in the Audiencia Nacional, the Supreme Court and the Ministry of Public Works, successively), she developed her specialization in regulated sectors studying the Master in Business and Energy Law (Instituto Superior de la Energía, Repsol YPF and Cremades & Calvo-Sotelo), which she combined with a scholarship in the Department of Energy Regulation of the Legal Services of Iberdrola.

Silvia has participated in all kinds of operations, many of them related to activities of great administrative intervention and public services (administrative contracting). She also advises in the verification of compliance with applicable sectorial regulations, in the detection of possible legal contingencies (due diligences), as well as in their resolution or regularization. Her work includes regularly representing her clients before administrations and public bodies (administrative proceedings), as well as before the courts (contentious-administrative appeals), in matters related to a wide variety of matters.
