CMS Albiñana y Suárez de Lezo is well positioned to assist major clients – both lenders and borrowers – with transactional and regulatory matters. The firm, praised for its ‘excellent coordination in deals across multiple geographies’, is skilled in acquisition finance, debt refinancing, and project finance, with a strong emphasis on the energy sector. Co-head Alberto Mata Rodríguez adds significant value with his expertise in cross-border financing transactions, while fellow co-lead Ricardo Plasencia oversees financial regulatory matters. The practice was further strengthened in July 2024 with the arrival of Alejandro González from Hogan Lovells Spain, who brings considerable experience in leveraged buy-outs, refinancings, and securitisations.
