Established in 2012, Medellín-based boutique VM Legal is a key member of the local legal landscape. Arguably best known for its tax expertise, where it specialises in work connected to the real estate, construction, and road concessions sectors, the two-partner firm is also well versed in commercial, corporate, and foreign exchange law. Firm founders Adriana Melo and Beatriz Villegas are noted for their interdisciplinary expertise; both bring to bear over two decades of experience in handling tax, corporate, commercial and foreign exchange law-related issues. Support is provided by a sizeable band of six associates, including M&A head Laura Sanin, who advises on corporate and tax matters; Ana María Tobón, who has a focus on real estate and the reorganisation of business and family groups; and Sergio Duque, who is noted for tax litigation, as well as tax advisory, commercial and exchange law.
