Ismael ClementeUría Menéndez

Standing out for their ‘experience’, ‘dedication’ and ‘strategy’, Uría Menéndez‘s corporate crime and internal investigations department is highly adept at handling market manipulation, public corruption, and espionage-related matters, as well as investigations before the National Court. The group is capable of dealing with high-value, high-profile, and complex matters across a range of sectors, including financial services, engineering, and construction. Co-leading the team are Jaime Alonso, who concentrates on tax evasion, fraud, and insider trading, and Ismael Clemente, who specialises in fraud, environmental crimes, and work-related accidents. The department also benefits from the expertise of Patricia Leandro, who advises on false accounting, bribery and corruption, and misappropriation of trade secrets.
