The ‘very high quality’ counsel from Martens Abogados, S.C.’s litigation department comes from a specialist team that is admired for ’seeking innovative solutions’. While it unquestionably stands out for its work in the energy sector, where the team acts in a host of contractual disputes, the practice is also well-versed in contentious environmental law matters and finance-related litigation. ‘Highly experienced despite his young age’, Federico Martens co-leads the group alongside Luis Gerardo González, who has broad commercial and administrative litigation expertise. Associate support is provided by Rodrigo Iraola Leonel de Cervantes (civil and commercial litigation); former associate Mauricio Asali de Alba moved in house at Iberdrola in March 2023.
