Distinguished by its ‘excellent experience and knowledge in trade matters’, regulatory boutique Ibarra Abogados Rimon Law is considered by many as a destination practice for complex international trade work, with its strong legal team supported by a diverse pool of economists, finance specialists, engineers and auditors. The group is widely recognised as a first port of call for trade remedies, where it has an enviable track record in anti-dumping cases, most notably filing the first countervailing duty petition in Colombian history. The group also brings to bear significant experience in the application of bilateral and multilateral agreements, WTO dispute settlement and administrative proceedings concerning customs matters. Highly experienced managing partner, Gabriel Ibarra Pardo, demonstrates ’impeccable management of the technical, political and legal scenarios to determine the strategies to follow’, according to some. He recently represented Rheem Industria Chilena in the anti-dumping duty sunset review concerning metal drums from Chile. The team also draws on regulatory specialist Ana Lucía Parra, who has a significant customs and trade dimension to her practice; Alejandro Ibarra, whose focus takes in an array of foreign trade, competition, consumer protection and data privacy law; and ‘very disciplined and very skilled’ intermediate associate Dylan Arias, who co-ordinates the international trade and customs area. In a major development since publication, the firm has merged with a further four legal boutiques - MPV Abogados, Prias Cadavid Abogados, Quintero y Quintero Asesores and Torrado Angarita & Pinzón Abogados - to form new platform: Signature Legal Group (effective as of February 2025).
