Hailed by clients for its ‘extensive experience in the concessions sector in Colombia’, Arrieta Mantilla & Asociados’s arbitration offering reflects the wider firm’s dominance in projects and public law. In particular, the team is a first port of call for concessionaires looking to bring disputes against ANI, with its recent cases in this sphere spanning economic imbalance, insurance coverage and concession agreement violations, among other issues. Paula Andrea Ramos is recommended for her ’transparent dialogue’ and co-heads the department together with up-and-coming disputes specialist Carlos Alberto Manzano, who can ‘easily understand the technical characteristics that underpin conflict resolution’. Ramons and Manzano recently partnered up to represent Concesionaria Vial de los Andes (Coviandes) in arbitration proceedings against ANI seeking to collect higher costs for contract contingencies. Other key contacts include eminent public law expert Carlos Gustavo Arrieta Padilla; senior partner and high-profile infrastructure specialist Álvaro Mantilla; and prolific associate Juan Felipe Cornejo, who supports on dispute resolution and insurance work. In November 2023, senior associate Rodrigo Sánchez Pineda relocated from the dispute resolution group to the infrastructure practice.
