Mr Julián Rojas > Pinilla González & Prieto Abogados > Bogota, Colombia > Lawyer Profile

A client of Pinilla González & Prieto Abogados’ corporate and M&A group awards it the ultimate accolade with the assertion: ‘you know it will get the job done’. The firm’s signature real estate offering translates into a practice that primarily represents companies in the construction and infrastructure sectors on transactional matters. That being said, the team also demonstrates growing activity in the life sciences, energy, and technology fields. Founding partner Felipe Pinilla maintains a broad corporate practice, which combines his skill sets in the corporate, tax, and dispute resolution areas. Pinilla co-heads the department alongside Camilo Andrés Hermida and up-and-coming partner Julian Felipe Rojas, who handles a mix of corporate, estate planning and foreign investment. Associates Lina Maria Ospina and Maria Fernanda Ortiz are also recommended.

Standing as a benchmark for real estate law in Colombia, Pinilla González & Prieto Abogados’ group impresses with its ‘first-class lawyers’ and ‘remarkable level of experience’, according to sources. The comprehensive practice spans the full spectrum of industry issues, from regulatory matters through to real estate financing and project development. Fielding one of the deepest real estate benches in the market, the group includes go-to specialist Juan Manuel González, who is widely recognised as a dean of the real estate bar. González teamed up with urban law head Ángela Caicedo, transactional real estate expert Felipe Pinilla, and corporate law partner Julián Rojas to advise Cemex Colombia on the development of almost 400 hectares of land in Bogotá. Other key names include urban planning specialist Sandra Milena Lizcano — who co-heads the department together with González and Caicedo — and Camilo Hermida, who ‘provides impeccable service’. The experienced Susana Mowerman Ocampo is noted at associate. Laura Carolina Mesa Fonseca was promoted to managing associate in October 2023. Luis Miguel González left the firm in September 2023.
