Uría Menéndez

Uría Menéndez is a full-service firm with 16 offices in Europe, the United States, Latin America and Asia. Operating mainly in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America, we provide legal advice on Spanish, Portuguese and European Union law regarding business-related matters.

Uría Menéndez’s Latin American strategy

Since the mid-1990s, we have had a network of offices and a permanent presence in the main cities of key Latin American countries, as well as the support of a group of well-reputed local law firms with which we have agreements and solid relationships. We have “best friend” relationships with a number of leading Latin American firms including Dias Carneiro Advogados (Brazil), Marval, O’Farrell & Mairal (Argentina), Philippi Yrarrázabal Pulido & Brunner (Chile), Payet, Rey, Cauvi (Peru), Galicia Abogados SC.(Mexico), Brigard & Urrutia (Colombia) and Prieto & Carrizosa (Colombia).

Furthermore, we have strong ties with prominent local law firms in other parts of the continent. Our relationships with several of these firms are not only limited to referrals but also to exchanges of training programmes and know-how, secondments and periodical meetings between partners and associates. This allows us to provide a highly effective blend of talents, knowledge of local lawyers and firms, understanding of clients’ needs, all combined with a thorough grasp of the local markets and understanding of the local conditions, risks and opportunities.

Our head office in the region is in São Paulo, from where we advise on Spanish, Portuguese and European Union Law. We are not only able to coordinate legal services throughout Latin America, but also have an unparalleled capacity to handle cross-border transactions for major American, European and Asian law firms and corporations, where clients benefit from cross-cultural professional expertise and technical excellence on both sides of the Atlantic.
