Early life and education

Born on 3 August 1973 in Madrid to a humble family; her father was a taxi-driver and her mother a hairdresser.[1][2][3] She graduated with a degree in law at the Complutense University of Madrid.[4] She also obtained a master's degree in judicial translation in the University of Alicante.[2]

Career

Llop entered the judiciary in 1999 and became a magistrate in 2004.[5]

Llop ran in the Spanish Socialist Worker's Party (PSOE) list for the 2015 Madrilenian regional election led by Ángel Gabilondo and became a member of the 10th term of the regional legislature. She formalised the renouncement of her seat in the Assembly of Madrid on 13 July 2018,[6] as she had been appointed by the Council of Ministers presided over by Pedro Sánchez as the new Government Delegate for Gender Violence. She was sworn into office on 24 July 2018.[7]

During her time in office, Llop led efforts on reforming Spain’s insolvency law to simplify bankruptcy proceedings and meet a major condition agreed with the European Commission to obtain European Union recovery funds.[8]
