Abstract
One of de most unknown positions but at the same time the most influential of the political structure of Valencia City was the city attorney. Therefore it did exist an specific interest from de monarchy to control this position. In our report we study the features of this type of position and we present a list of the position holders who were appointed from the Consell Secret and ratified from the Consell General during Carlos I reign. All this information is based on documentation from Archivo Municipal de Valencia. Occasionally the City was legally unprotected due to the overload amount of work experienced from many of the attorneys. In such cases, the City was provided with extra number of attorneys and assistants. For the assistants this was the first step into the possibility to act as a city attorney if any position became available.
