A ‘law firm of choice for matters relating to commercial law, corporate law, and corporate governance’, Garrigues excels in handling consequential M&A deals across a range of industries, including financial services, telecoms, real estate and energy. The group is particularly noted for its extensive ’experience advising many of the main listed companies in the country on highly complex matters’. The practice is jointly led by Mónica Martín De Vidales, a key figure for both industrial and private equity clients, and Àlvaro López-Jorrín, whose expertise spans M&A transactions and restructuring processes involving both private and listed companies. A reference for big-ticket M&A deals, Fernando Vives also offers expert guidance to publicly held companies on corporate governance issues. Arnau Tapias brings together experience in corporate law, M&A, PE deals and commercial contracts, while Sergio González Galán is proficient in transactional work and corporate governance issues.
