The ‘innovative and agile’ corporate and M&A group at Robalino attracts instructions from international and local clients seeking advice on big-ticket M&A transactions, as well as corporate and commercial matters. The team, which is well versed in cross-border work, is under the joint leadership of Martín Pallares, whose experience covers M&A and private equity deals, and Daniel Robalino, a key contact for multinationals, funds and clients from the fintech, e-commerce and insurtech segments. Javier Robalino is a reference for multijurisdictional M&A and foreign investment. Christian Narvaez is often engaged in corporate mandates concerning the retail, fashion, e-commerce and pharma sectors. The practice group was further strengthened by the May 2024 hire of former Pérez Bustamante & Ponce partner Diego Palacios Brito; his broad expertise covers corporate, contractual, labour and administrative law matters. Since publication, the firm has considerably strengthened its presence in Guayaquil with the hire of Lisette Torres Ortíz as a corporate partner and head of the insurance practice; with expertise in strategic management, corporate governance and regulatory compliance, as well as qualifications in environmental law and litigation, she arrives with a team of six associates and one of counsel - effective as of March 2025.
