ECIJA
More informationSpanish firm ECIJA has established a strong platform in Latin America – and has continued in expansion mode, most recently formalising a strategic alliance with Taylor Wessing LLP in March 2023 – which makes it a strong choice for multinationals seeking advice on their operations in Honduras. The firm, which has two offices in the country, frequently assists companies with their expansion in Central America, as well as handling restructurings, capital raises (and related regulatory approvals), and distribution and licensing matters. Honduras managing partner Roberto Williams shares leadership of the team with the highly experienced Rosalinda Cruz Sequeira. Jorge Arturo Reina provides support, alongside business manager Daniel Williams and associate Guillermo Matamoros. The firm’s ECIJA Tech offering, which assists companies with digitising their legal departments, is also an asset for clients.
