Corporate M&A
Rodrigo has more than seventeen years of experience as a civil and commercial law practitioner and has developed a strong track record in mergers and acquisitions and complex joint ventures. He advises international investors — mainly private equity funds and multinationals — as well as family businesses on acquisition, merger, restructuring, financing and insolvency transactions. His expertise also spans a wide range of sectors, including automotive, engineering, transport, food and healthcare, as well as heavy industry, paper, media and energy.
In recent years, he has been recognised by Chambers Europe’s Lawyers Directory as an “Outstanding M&A lawyer in the Spanish market,” and he received the 40 Lawyers Under 40 Award in 2017 for his distinguished contribution to the Spanish legal profession. These recognitions reflect the meticulous work carried out together with his team and clients in every M&A transaction, strengthening his confidence and expertise in delivering work of the highest calibre.
He also serves as Secretary to the Board of Directors of several multinational companies, accompanying investors throughout the full negotiation cycle up to completion and exit. He has advised international funds on multiple acquisitions of subsidiaries in Spain and subsequently on their restructuring and successful sale.
He began his professional career at several international law firms, including Cuatrecasas — where he was part of the French Desk — and Clifford Chance, where he worked in the Private Equity team. Before joining Fieldfisher as Director of the Madrid office, he was a founding partner of the M&A and litigation boutique GMQ.
Academically, he studied at the Complutense University of Madrid and holds a Master’s Degree in Business Law from its School of Legal Practice. He has lectured on the Master’s in Legal Consultancy at ICADE and taught commercial law in practicum courses for final-year students. He has also taught on the Master’s in Legal Advice at the Carlos III University of Madrid.
