Baker McKenzie S.A.S.

Baker McKenzie S.A.S.’s ability to plug into its extensive global network marks it as a top choice to represent major multinational corporations in litigation with a Colombian dimension, while it also supports domestic clients looking to litigate at home or abroad. Acting for leading companies in the energy, financial services, infrastructure, life sciences and transport sectors, the team’s recent highlights span civil, commercial, insolvency, tax and white-collar crime cases. Key contacts include dispute resolution specialist María Angélica Burgos, who re-joined the firm in May 2025, following two years leading her own boutique; she recently advised Quanta Services on a $1.4m dispute with Enel concerning a contract to service medium‑ and low‑voltage electrical distribution networks. Increasingly prominent next-generation partner Sebastian Quintero led on a string of significant matters during 2025/26, including several high-value insolvency-related cases. In a highlight example, he represented HSBC Bank USA as indenture trustee in Transtel’s judicial liquidation, defending $80m in bondholder claims. The department also draws on the senior experience of criminal litigation partner Bibiana Cala. Providing dedicated practice support are dispute resolution-focused senior associates Estefanía Contreras and Ana Carolina Abreo, both of whom advise on judicial and arbitral proceedings.
