CMM Abogados Colombia
More informationCMM Abogados Colombia’s group ‘takes ownership of the closing goal’, according to some. The newly merged firm — which is the result of an August 2022 combination between real estate and urban law boutique Acosta & Gaviria Legal and the former Cáez Muñoz Mejía — has extensive experience in real estate and urban planning matters, with notable activity in the hotels, retail, healthcare, co-working and logistics segments. The department is co-led by up-and-coming specialists Natalia Gaviria Parra and Patricia Acosta, with support from ’committed and results-oriented’ associate Ana Lucía Gutiérrez.
