Garrigues

Client Satisfaction

Steered by renowned PE specialist José Manuel Martín, Garrigues‘ practice handles a steady volume of transactions for international and Spanish funds investing in a variety of sectors, including consumer products, healthcare and natural resources, among others. Covering advice on LBOs, carve-outs, minority and secondary deals as well as P2P transactions, the practice excels in the mid-market segment, but is equally adept at handling large-cap mandates. Demonstrating strength in the technology and infrastructure sectors, José Luis Ortín is routinely instructed in fund formation and transactional matters. Also part of the core team, María Fernández-Picazo focuses on PE investments, leveraged finance and management buyouts, and senior associate Beatriz Gimeno advises several PE funds and industry operators on sophisticated transactions.
