In 1971, Ignacio Gómez Acebo and Fernando Pombo founded a legal firm designed in the purest English style of that time. They had the intention of attending to a growing international client base, as well as offering the services that other firms were already providing on a national scale.

Since then, our motivation has been the knowledge that our services provide an added value clear to the interests of our clients and, furthermore, because this is also how they see it. Understanding their needs and business is an essential requirement to ensure that our lawyers provide legal services in an effective way. Our lawyers believe that their job is a calling and are enthusiastically committed to each client’s case.

Our reasoning is that a service provided without quality does not last long in the memory. For this reason, a considerable part of our organisation is directed towards ensuring that each and every one of our lawyers maintains a high level of legal knowledge. This constant study and training ethic has led to some of our publications becoming literary benchmarks in the field and, in certain areas of practice, institutional entities frequently consulting the firm about proposed legislative changes.

And because we firmly believe in our profession, we have always been actively involved in both national and international professional associations. Our legal work is today caught up in an atmosphere of great change, in which we want to be involved as main players and not mere spectators.
