‘Lawyers are very competent, they do not overload the client with excessively large teams, they maintain partner-client exposure during the process and are transparent in billing.'
‘I have worked with several firms, but Uría Menéndez's litigation team is unique because the partners not only master legal issues but also the various facets of the client's business. Furthermore, they work in multidisciplinary teams to ensure a 360º view of the subject.'
