Specialist in advising on tax issues relating to crossborder transactions in the following four areas: foreign investment in Spain, Spanish investment abroad, restructuring of multinational groups, and projects and infrastructure. In foreign investment in Spain, I handle both private and public M&A, and advises foreign groups on setting up in Spain. I have also advised Spanish groups on M&A transactions abroad and on setting up abroad. I have advised on restructuring Argentinean, Brazilian, Colombian and Mexican groups into Spanish holding companies, as well as advising European, US and Asian groups on investing in Latin America. I am an expert in projects. I have advised on the high-speed train connection between Spain and France and led the tax team advising on building the gas pipe between Spain and Algiers (Project Medgaz). I also have in-depth knowledge of transfer pricing (e.g., reorganizing the value chain, litigation matters and preparing documents) and ample experience in advising the holders of large estates on tax issues, having handled high-profile cases over tax residence in the Spanish courts.
