Jose Ramon is a versatile lawyer when it comes to providing legal solutions. His expertise goes an extra mile from the traditional legal advice. He has worked in the real estate arena from three different but highly important perspectives that gives him a 360-degree understanding:

(i) The law firm and advisor perspective;

(ii) The local authority perspective in charge of real estate and urbanistic matters; and

(iii) The construction company perspective.

José Ramón worked at Prietocarrizosa, now PPU, at Pedro Gómez y Cía. (a leading construction company in Colombia) and in the Special Administrative Unit of Cadastre of Bogotá (local authority). His professional experience has allowed him to know both perspectives, which allows him to have a comprehensive and deep understanding of real estate matters, allowing him to go beyond the legal implications of the projects and consider the business opportunities for the industry.
