The ‘undisputed leader in white-collar crime and corporate criminal defence work’, Bofill Escobar Silva Abogados focuses exclusively on the resolution of complex and/or cross-border disputes. The team is routinely sought out to act before domestic and foreign courts, as well as governmental authorities and international arbitration tribunals; while its caseload often comprises politically-sensitive matters or cases that attract media attention. Representative mandates range from high-stakes economic crime cases, to significant investigations involving allegations of corruption, and crimes committed against companies’ assets, property and employees. ’Without question one of the top white-collar crime lawyers around’, Jorge Bofill is ‘an exceptional strategist with unparalleled experience in complex criminal cases’. In addition to white-collar crime, Bofill’s dispute resolution practice encompasses commercial litigation and international arbitration, and he has longstanding experience in legislative work; while the criminal litigation caseload of fellow co-head, César Ramos, covers economic, property, tax and securities matters. In the firm’s associate ranks, Andrea Lema regularly represents defendants and victims in complex litigation; while Bárbara Yévenes, ’a very meticulous and intelligent criminal lawyer who excels in each case’, focuses on economic crimes, internal investigations, and developing strategies for cases with high levels of media exposure. Both Lema and Yévenes are former Public Defenders. Since publication, the firm has divided, with all the aforementioned lawyers joining the newly established Bofill y Ramos Abogados - with effect from January 2026.
