About

Described as ‘an outstanding, very business-oriented lawyer that can make the life of external counsel much easier, since his level of sophistication is equal to the best partners in the leading firms’, Javier Prados Mateos prides himself on having created Isolux Infrastructure’s in-house legal department from scratch. ‘I have incorporated the reporting lines, the internal regulations applying to the legal function, the chief compliance officer position as well as the structure of the legal department abroad in each of the jurisdictions where the company operates’ he comments. He played a crucial role in the closure of a €1.2bn divestment with a major Chinese company, the 10th largest in the world. Prados Mateos started his career in private practice and he has worked for some of the biggest international law firms, including Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, White & Case and Uría Menéndez.
Insolux Infrastructure was recently acquired by the Canadian investment pension fund PSP, and has now been renamed as Roadis in its new form.
