These new hires are part of the firm’s strategy to continue enhancing and expanding the practice led in Madrid by Javier Izquierdo. Since his arrival at the end of 2023, the litigation and arbitration practice has seen significant growth both in size and revenue. This progress underscores Squire Patton Boggs’ commitment to excellence and innovation in the sector.

Mayte Requejo, Of Counsel of the department, commented: “One of Squire Patton Boggs Madrid’s priorities is to continue strengthening and expanding our litigation and arbitration department. Attracting and developing highly qualified professionals is key to advancing further, contributing to our clients’ success and enhancing our position in the sector. We are thrilled to welcome Blanca and Ignacio, who bring valuable experience and a strong commitment to continue providing the best service to our clients. Particularly Ignacio’s arrival marks the consolidation of the white-collar area within the Litigation and Arbitration practice. Despite his youth, Ignacio has a solid track-record, and we are sure that he will be a key part of the development of the practice.”
