Thanks to this groundbreaking approach, over the years we have acted in the largest and most technically complex transactions, bringing and adapting international techniques to the different markets and contributing to the modernization of contractual and financing models. In doing so, we have garnered recognition from the market, cemented our leading position in prestigious legal directories and received numerous awards.
