Quintero y Quintero Asesores
Client SatisfactionQuintero y Quintero Asesores is lauded by some for providing ‘labour law strategy that is aligned with the client’s business’. The boutique firm is primarily recognised for its record in collective bargaining agreements, where it has represented domestic and multinational companies in over 1000 cases. The group’s experience additionally spans litigation (where it was successful in 85% of cases during 2024), transactional support work and general advisory matters. Ivan Quintero is commended for his ’ability to unite legal and business strategy’ and is considered by many as a leader for collective negotiations; he recently teamed up with Saida Quintero and next-generation partner, Felipe Quintero, to advise Promigas on the transfer of 250 workers from its subsidiary, Enlace, to Accenture. Other key contacts include litigation head Alejandro Arias; Dina López, who serves as director of the collective labour department; and associate directors Jaime Solano and Alejandra Soler, who both maintain broad labour and employment practices.
