Origins and Aims

“We are one of the most prestigious law firms of Continental Europe and have adhered at all times to our core principles: profound analysis of the law, professional services of the highest quality and long-lasting relations with clients, capacity for innovation and honesty, decency and strict compliance with high ethical and professional standards; in a nutshell, we strive to excel at all levels”.

Rodrigo Uría Meruéndano.
 

URÍA MENÉNDEZ has evolved from the firm established in the 1940s by the late Professor Rodrigo Uría González and we now have fourteen offices in Europe, the United States and Latin America. We operate mainly in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America where we advise on Spanish, Portuguese and European Union law.

The firm provides advice in all areas of law relating to the business world and has for many years assisted companies in developing their businesses. URÍA MENÉNDEZ has always been very close to the academic world, in particular to universities, and frequently provides assistance in humanitarian projects.
