Act Legal Spain promotes Jesús Redondo to partner
Jesús Redondo, who has headed the real estate and public law practice areas since joining Act Legal Spain in 2024, has been promoted to partner and will take on the role of head of the firm’s new Seville office, scheduled to open next March. With the launch of the new office, Act Legal Spain aims to strengthen its presence in Andalusia and reinforces its strategic commitment to Seville, particularly in the aerospace sector.
The opening of the Seville office will allow the firm to work more closely with industrial, technology and defence companies it already advises and that operate in the region, as well as to play an active role in the business ecosystem linked to the Aerospace District, a project aimed at consolidating the largest aerospace hub in southern Europe under a sustainable and innovative model, states the law firm.
The firm will also offer comprehensive legal advice in other areas such as M&A, tax, real estate, labour, white-collar crime and compliance, among others, in the region. “Seville, and Andalusia as a whole, are going through a decisive moment from an industrial and business perspective. Our permanent presence in the city reflects our commitment to being close to the companies leading this transformation and to supporting them in their regulatory and strategic challenges”, Jesús Redondo said.
Cristina de Santiago, managing partner of Act Legal Spain, added: “Jesús’s promotion to partner and the opening of the Seville office are part of our growth strategy in key locations for industry and investment. Seville offers enormous potential in terms of innovation, infrastructure and sustainable development, and we want to play an active role in that growth by adding value through legal expertise.”
