More compact than some, BBGS Abogados impresses with its high service levels, with one source commenting, ‘it is highly efficient and agile in response to the needs of clients’. Well versed across a broad range of contentious matters, the group routinely links up with the firm’s TMT and IP teams to handle litigation related to those spheres; it also has strong activity in bankruptcy cases. IP specialist Felipe Rubio is the key name at partner level, but associate director Lorenzo Pizarro manages the practice on a day-to-day basis. Senior associate Lorena Parrado provides ’solutions that require agility’. Since publication, Pizarro has been raised to the partnership - effective as or March 2024.
