For many, Pinilla González & Prieto Abogados sets the standard for real estate law in Colombia and one construction client attests that it is ‘one of the few firms in Colombia that has the required level of specific real estate knowledge’. The group enjoys close links with developers, construction companies and landowners, among other stakeholders, and provides support on the full range of related matters, from urban planning and project development, through to contentious and transactional work. Among the names to note, high-profile expert Juan Manuel González heads the urban and real estate law team; he is acting alongside planning specialist Ángela Caicedo to advise Amarilo on modifying the regulatory framework of a partial plan to allow the development of an area of urban land in Barranquilla. On the transactional side, corporate real estate partner Julián Rojas paired up with up-and-coming urban planning specialist Sandra Milena Lizcano to advise Inversiones Inmobiliarias Santa Cruz on the corporate structure scheme to finance the construction of public services infrastructure and principal roads in Ibagué. Other key contacts include corporate head Felipe Pinilla; transactional real estate partner Camilo Hermida; newly promoted (October 2023) managing associate Laura Carolina Mesa Fonseca, who specialises in administrative and real estate law; and urban-planning focused associate Susana Mowerman Ocampo. Luis Miguel González left the firm in September 2023.
