This ranking celebrates the most influential lawyers, organised into categories that reflect their impact: from undisputed leaders and business generators, to drivers of positive change and strategic consolidators among which three of our partners stand out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our managing partner \u00cd\u00f1igo Erlaiz Cotelo is recognised in the category of Undisputed Leaders for the consolidation of his leadership and focus on the profitability and international expansion of GA_P.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, his integration of AI in the firm&#8217;s processes, the strengthening of key areas such as M&amp;A and Litigation as well as the implementation of strategies to retain and attract young talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the category of Drivers of Positive Change, promoting diversity, equality and innovation in the market, the work of our Mercantil partner, head of TMT and president of the IBA, Almudena Arp\u00f3n de Mend\u00edvil, is highlighted and mentioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the milestone of her presidency of the International Bar Association, Almudena is highlighted for the impetus she has given to key initiatives within the legal sector such as gender equality, the relevance of the legal profession in society and the protection of rights in the digital environment, among many others, including her focus on preparing the young lawyers of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iberian Lawyer also highlights 20 relevant figures from the Portuguese market, among which G\u00f3mez-Acebo &amp; Pombo celebrates the presence of one of its partners, Mafalda Barreto, a partner in the Corporate, Banking and Finance and Capital Markets practice and head of the Portuguese office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mafalda&#8217;s role is highlighted in the Consolidators category, for her key performance in strengthening GA_P, fostering the growth and consolidation of the organisation. She is also recognised for her expertise in M&amp;A, leading large transactions in the Lisbon office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"Boton-block_8078b6138afa99a2de9244835abebc86\" class=\"Boton\">\n\n
