Robalino excels in assisting clients, often global organisations, with operations in Ecuador, including the development of large-scale and high-value projects. Other areas of focus include advising on the strategic purchase of real estate and the structuring of real estate projects more generally. Martín Pallares, who is notable for his expertise in regional real estate in Ecuador, is at the helm alongside Daniel Robalino, who stands out for the acquisition of land, notably farmland acquisitions and other agricultural projects. The group is also able to assist with the construction permits and licenses related to land acquisition. Pallares is also key on the transactional side, with a long history of acting in cross-border real estate transactions. Senior associate Christian Narvaez is prolific in the retail sector, particularly for purchase agreements.
