    Profile

    Favio Ruesta joined the Firm in 2026 as an Associate. His practice focuses on providing legal advice on environmental matters to companies in the mining, energy, manufacturing and agricultural sectors. This includes the legal assessment of new business initiatives with environmental implications, support during field inspections, the development of compliance strategies within the context of enforcement proceedings, and the delivery of training tailored to the needs of each production process, enabling clients to make informed decisions.

    Studies:

    • Master of Laws (LL.M.) in International Environmental Law and Climate Change, University of Edinburgh (2023).
    • Postgraduate Specialisation Programme in Environmental and Natural Resources Law, Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (2020).
    • Law Degree, Universidad de Piura (2017).

    His working languages are Spanish and English.

    Experience

    Favio has more than 9 years of experience advising companies in the mining, energy, manufacturing and agricultural sectors. His practice focuses on Environmental Law, particularly in areas such as solid waste (including waste from electronic equipment and off-the-road tyres), water resources, wastewater, forestry resources and wildlife.

    His practice includes advising on the interpretation of environmental obligations arising from environmental impact assessments and other permits, assisting clients in obtaining environmental permits, and conducting internal audits and environmental due diligence in connection with M&A transactions and financing.

    Drawing on his initial legal training at the Peruvian Environmental Enforcement Agency (OEFA, for its acronym in Spanish) and his in-house experience, he also provides a wide range of services that enable clients to make informed decisions regarding their environmental contingencies. These include on-site assistance during field inspections, the design of strategies for the prevention and mitigation of such contingencies, defence in sanctioning proceedings initiated by OEFA and other authorities, and the delivery of training programmes with a preventive and corrective approach tailored to each production process.

    Previously, he was an Associate at law firms specialising in environmental matters and served as Legal Counsel at an environmental services company.

    Academic and Publishing Collaborations

    He has authored several articles for specialised legal publications, including Reflections on the non-transferability of water use rights in Peru, THEMIS Revista de Derecho (2022). The manifestly evident environmental improvement: optimistic look at a figure that is currently unfriendly, THEMIS Revista de Derecho (2022). Separation of an environmental impact assessment in the large-scale mining sector through the transfer of mining concessions or beneficiation concessions, Repositorio de Tesis PUCP (2019). He is also a member of the Callao Bar Association (CAC).
