Perspective

Legal work belongs inside the commercial context.

Héctor’s experience spans the UN system, European innovation organisations, public media and international private practice. That range informs a way of working that is structured without becoming formalistic: identify the real decision, distinguish material risk from background noise and leave the team with something it can use.

He works directly with management and legal, commercial, procurement, product and project teams in English, Spanish and French.

Working principles

01

Direct

The lawyer responsible for the work remains close to the people making the decision.

02

Contextual

Advice reflects the transaction, organisation, jurisdiction and practical constraints.

03

Accountable

Technology may support the work; material conclusions and recommendations remain under lawyer review.

04

Bounded

Scope, assumptions and the need for local or specialist counsel are made explicit.
