Like every year, the economic newspaper Expansión announces awards for the best legal firms in 12 categories of the profession. In one of them, Intellectual Property, a jury made up of people of recognized prestige in the sector has chosen ELZABURU among the seven finalist firms. It so happens that in the years 2020 and 2021 ELZABURU was the winner of the award, something unusual. This year's winners will be announced on June 30, at a gala organized by the newspaper. Legal advice in our country has become so sophisticated in recent years that clients demand both a high-quality multidisciplinary service from their reference law firms and a very high specialization in certain key areas for their businesses. Precisely, the role that firms play in being recognized for their extensive knowledge and trajectories in certain areas is what EXPANSIÓN wants to reward in twelve sectoral categories. These are the most active markets in the business field and, therefore, also in business law and in which specialization is decisive to anticipate and face any challenge that may arise.
