Pedro Pérez-Llorca relocates to Mexico City to reinforce its internationalisation

Pérez-Llorca gives new impetus to its global growth with the launch of Scala, an internal project aimed at fully exploiting the opportunities offered by its internationalisation process and consolidating its position as one of the leading legal services firms in Latin America.

As part of this drive, Pedro Pérez-Llorca will temporarily relocate to Mexico City for one year in 2026, where he will oversee the firm’s work in the Americas alongside the international team headed by Iván Delgado, International Executive Partner based in New York, supported by Jorge Mondragón, Country Chair in Mexico, and Mauricio Piñeros, Country Chair in Colombia, as well as the firm’s local management bodies in these countries, composed of Mexican and Colombian partners. Pedro Pérez-Llorca will continue to perform his current duties, with the firm’s governing bodies and management structure remaining unchanged, as articulated through the International Partnership Board.

“We want to seize and take advantage of the opportunities offered by this new international phase with determination. Scala represents our desire to accelerate the future of Pérez-Llorca, while maintaining our commitment to excellence and to the talent and development of all our professionals,” said Pedro Pérez-Llorca, managing partner of Pérez-Llorca.

More than 25% of Pérez-Llorca’s sales in 2025 will be international.

Since opening its first international office in London in 2015, Pérez-Llorca has developed an international network with a presence in London, New York, Brussels and Singapore, as well as a domestic presence in Spain, Portugal, Mexico and Colombia, with seven local offices in Madrid, Barcelona, Lisbon, Mexico City, Monterrey, Bogotá and Medellín.

By 2025, the firm expects 25% of its sales to come from its practices outside Spain – Portugal, Mexico and Colombia – reflecting the strategic importance of foreign markets in its growth plan.

This project has the support of strategic consultants who are already working with the firm to identify and accelerate the opportunities arising from this international expansion, with the aim of generating efficiency for clients and growth and value for the firm, as well as preparing a reorganisation of the group of companies that will enable it to capture all the opportunities that arise, ensuring the most appropriate structure.
