Pérez-Llorca today announced the appointment of six partners, through both internal promotions and new arrivals.

Four of the firm’s six new partners are women, in line with the Pérez-Llorca Equality Plan, which includes measures to promote and develop women’s careers in order to advance equal opportunities between men and women and increase the number of female partners at the firm.

Five of these six partners are part of the firm’s international offices, and are in addition to the recently announced appointment of Manuel de Abreu Castelo Branco in Lisbon, in a further demonstration of Pérez-Llorca’s firm commitment to international development.
