Rincón Castro Abogados’ thriving litigation practice ‘proposes strong strategies that lead to success stories’. Arguably best known for its dominant arbitration offering, the firm also houses an increasingly active litigation group that excels in representing domestic and multinational energy, transport, telecoms and construction clients in high-stakes litigation. Key names to note include Rafael Rincón, who stands out for his extensive expertise in transnational judicial and arbitral proceedings, particularly in the infrastructure sphere; Miguel Castro, who specialises in public law matters; and Juan Ignacio Guerra, who is establishing a strong record for domestic litigation. Senior associates Ana María Rincón and Santiago Vernaza are also recommended. Since the conclusion of researcher the practice group has been further strengthened with the September 2024 hire of former Brigard Urrutia partner Felipe Mutis, who has a strong administrative aspect to his disputes practice.
