Dear Client,
For over 30 years, at Gómez-Pinzón we have been dedicated to supporting our clients in making the best decisions for their businesses. Today, with your needs in mind and with the aim of providing first-class legal advice with global capabilities, we have decided to take a significant step forward by initiating an integration process with the Spanish law firm Pérez-Llorca.
This transaction marks the entry of Pérez-Llorca—an esteemed firm with over 40 years of experience—into the Colombian market, with the objective of advising on inbound investment flows into Colombia from across the globe, particularly from the United States, Europe, Mexico, Asia, and other South American countries.
Gómez-Pinzón will continue to operate with our team of more than 120 lawyers from our offices in Bogotá and Medellín, with the shared goal of building the leading legal services firm in Colombia, fully dedicated to our clients.
This is the first time that a Colombian law firm has entered into a full legal and economic integration with an Ibero-American counterpart.This move builds on Gómez-Pinzón’s strong positioning and long-standing reputation in the local market, and it includes the incorporation of all our partners and professionals into Pérez-Llorca’s structure.
We are proud and excited about this developments, which represents the joining of forces with a European firm that has made significant strides in its strategy for internationalization. Key milestones include the integration of the Mexican firm González Calvillo, the establishment of operations in Portugal, and the strengthening of its presence in key financial and regulatory centers such as London, New York, Brussels, and Singapur.
Following this expansion and upon the completion of the integration with Gómez-Pinzón, Pérez-Llorca will have 11 offices and nearly one thousand professionals, consolidating a regional firm model across Iberian and Latin American markets. We are confident that this will further enhance the quality and scope of legal services we provide to all our clients.
We anticipate that the integration will be finalized in the coming weeks, pending approval by the governing bodies of both firms. Once this is complete, we will formally share the news with you.
We want to emphasize that this integration reflects our ongoing focus on providing you, our clients, with the best possible service and support.
Sincerely,
Mauricio Piñeros Perdomo
Managing Partner
