AIYON Abogados commemorates its 10th anniversary at its headquarters in Bilbao, marking the culmination of a great year of celebrations
AIYON Abogados celebrates its 10th anniversary at its headquarters in Bilbao, after a decade in which it has consolidated its position as a national and international leader in maritime and transport law, reaffirming at all times its commitment to professional excellence and personalised service to its clients.
Our boutique firm celebrated its tenth anniversary with a wonderful event held at La Torre de Iberdrola on 2 October, attended by clients and partners, as well as representatives from the logistics and transport sector at national and international level. An event that brings a great year of celebrations to a close, after a decade of hard work and shared enthusiasm.
Founded in 2015 by a team of expert lawyers, all specialising in maritime law, transport, international trade and insurance, the firm has grown to have offices in Madrid, Cadiz and Algeciras, in addition to its headquarters in Bilbao, which hosted the event. Its multidisciplinary team of solicitors, with an average of more than twenty years’ experience in the sector, offers a comprehensive 360º legal service (24/7) within its areas of expertise, as well as in any other area of law with the help of its regular collaborators.
During these ten years of work, the AIYON team has demonstrated its ability to adapt to the challenges of the sector. Over the years, the firm has advised companies and professionals of all kinds, handling both small queries and actively participating in large-scale projects. In addition to being appointed to assist in major maritime accidents occurring at sea, the firm’s solicitors are at the forefront of new technologies being implemented in the sector, such as offshore platforms and, more specifically, floating offshore wind farms. Our close collaboration with local engineering firm SAITEC Offshore Technologies is proof of this.
AIYON Abogados has not only consolidated its presence in the domestic market, but we are also one of the main collaborating firms for numerous companies in the sector based in other countries, including multinationals and insurance companies with an international presence, prestigious law firms and P&I Clubs, and institutions such as the IOPC Funds (IMO). In this way, we position ourselves as a leading law firm, offering tailored legal advice and solutions.
In a global and constantly evolving environment, the solicitors at AIYON know that the sector always requires dynamic measures tailored to each case and each client. The five partners, Mikel Garteiz-goxeaskoa, Verónica Meana, José Antonio Domínguez, Enrique Ortiz and Zuberoa Elorriaga, whose work has been recognised by specialist British directories such as The Legal500 and Chambers & Partners, lead a team of young professionals who aspire to contribute to the firm’s growth in the coming years so that, in another decade, we can all once again commemorate the good work of our firm and its hallmark, which combines the serious, professional and dedicated practice of its profession with an approach that is always friendly and attentive.
