Uría Menéndez

Founded in the 1940s, Uría Menéndez has since become one of the most prestigious international law firms with almost 700 lawyers working in the most important financial centres in Europe and the Americas. Our capacity for innovation, our profound analysis of the law and our unwavering respect for deontological ethics have all made Uría Menéndez one of the leading firms across the Iberian and Latin American markets.

Uría Menéndez has played an active role in Latin America for almost 25 years as the region has become core to our firm. Our approach to Latin America is not made from a Latin American desk. We deal with Latin American matters the same way we deal with Spanish or Portuguese matters.

Uría Menéndez is present in the region through Philippi Prietocarrizosa Ferrero DU & Uría (PPU). In addition to our offices through PPU in Bogotá, Barranquilla, Lima and Santiago, we continue to work closely in other Latin American countries with our network of Best Friends, with whom we have been offering our clients the best advice for their interests in the region since the mid-1990s.
