More than 100 corporate lawyers included in the ranking published by The Legal 500

The Legal 500 has published its third edition of the GC Powerlist in the Iberian Peninsula in which it recognizes the work of more than 100 corporate lawyers from companies with a presence in Spain and Portugal, in a ranking whose publication and presentation has been made with the collaboration of Andersen Tax & Legal.

The GC Powerlist: Iberia 2018, which was unveiled in June, was presented in Madrid at an event attended by in-house lawyers renowned for the quality, excellence and legal innovation of their work in the Spanish and Portuguese markets. This is a guide that distinguishes the Spanish and Portuguese markets, for which The Legal 500 has carried out independent research, including nominations, background research and interviews, culminating in the publication of the most outstanding ones.

During the presentation of the GC Powerlist Iberia in Madrid with the outstanding lawyers, the Dean of the Madrid Bar Association (ICAM), José María Alonso, was in charge of closing the event, congratulating all the outstanding people and expressing his "admiration for the work of all the corporate lawyers".

For his part, Jaime Olleros, Managing Partner of Andersen Tax & Legal in Spain, pointed out that corporate lawyers assume an important responsibility in the performance of their work and valued the collaboration between corporate lawyers and law firms, a combination - he said - that allows us to seek synergies and work together to achieve successful projects.

He also congratulated all those who stood out in the ranking and highlighted the initiative of The Legal 500 to continue to highlight the work of the law firms.

The Latin American editor of The Legal 500, Tim Girven, highlighted the work of the in-house lawyers featured in the GC Powerlist Iberia 2018 and pointed to the role of Spanish companies as architects of economic change in other countries such as Latin America.
