ECIJA expands into Andalusia with the addition of the team from LEAN Abogados

ECIJA continues to make progress with its growth strategy in Spain and is strengthening its commitment to Andalusia with the incorporation of the team from LEAN Abogados in Seville, a strategic market due to its entrepreneurial dynamism, ability to attract investment and growing importance in the national economy.

The move sees a team of seven professionals join ECIJA, led by Leandro Sequeiros, Javier Moreno, Fernando Ollero and Francisco Hidalgo, who are joining as new partners in the firm, alongside the rest of the professionals who previously made up the LEAN Abogados office in Seville.

This move represents a further step in ECIJA’s strategy to bring on board talent and established teams in strategic locations, combining in-depth knowledge of and deep roots in the local market with the firm’s multidisciplinary, technological and international capabilities.

The new partners and their teams have extensive experience in providing legal and tax advice to companies, national and international groups, entrepreneurs and investors, as well as a strong presence and knowledge of the Andalusian business community.

With these appointments, ECIJA significantly strengthens its capabilities in the region and expands its comprehensive advisory services in areas such as commercial, tax, litigation and employment law, as well as restructuring and M&A.

The team will operate from ECIJA’s headquarters on Avenida de la Palmera, one of Seville’s most iconic areas and a strategic hub within the city’s business landscape. From there, the firm will strengthen its ties with companies, entrepreneurs and investors in the region, offering them a platform of services that combines legal and business expertise, sector-specific knowledge, technology and international reach.

According to Alejandro Touriño, CEO of ECIJA, “Andalusia is a key market within our growth strategy in Spain. The addition of this team represents a significant step forward in our presence in the region and, above all, enables us to strengthen it through professionals of the highest calibre who are deeply connected to the Andalusian business community. We aim to combine this local connection and knowledge with all of ECIJA’s multidisciplinary, technological and international capabilities to support our clients in increasingly complex and ambitious projects.”
