Entering the market in July 2025 following its merger with Colombia’s Gómez-Pinzón Abogados, Pérez-Llorca ‘stands out for the quality of its legal professionals’, according to satisfied clients. Acting for a broad mix of corporate, state and semi-state entities, the team’s experience encompasses public tenders, infrastructure projects, administrative procedures and public law disputes.
