Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Great knowledge of the sector. More experience than other firms. They have technological tools that help us monitor the applicable legislation.’
‘They are experts and very capable in the sector. They always look for the best possibility, warning of the risks. They clearly state their positions, even if it is contrary to the client's opinion. Clients need clarity, reality and certainty; we don't need them to tell us yes to what we think. They think critically and their reports are concise and clear. I have to highlight Giancarlo Villafranqui, Juan Carlos Escudero and Michelle Barclay.’
