ECIJA's sizeable footprint in Spain, Portugal and Latin America, as well as its strategic alliance with Taylor Wessing LLP, mean it is well positioned to advise international companies operating in the Honduran market. The team is particularly active in assisting with the incorporation and structuring of new Honduran entities, including obtaining the necessary permits and government approvals to operate in the jurisdiction and handling related tax and consumer protection issues. Rosalinda Cruz Sequeira, an expert in the banking and insurance sectors, Honduras managing partner Roberto Williams, Jorge Arturo Reina and business manager Daniel Williams form the leadership team. Clients also benefit from the firm’s ECIJA Tech offering, which assists with the digitalisation of in-house legal departments.
