The combination of experience, talent development, and capacity expansion allows us to offer more robust, specialized, and efficient advice. Our mission is to provide the best legal service in the country, supported by technological innovation and the best talent in the Panamanian legal industry, always keeping our clients at the center of every decision. With this agreement, Quijano & Asociados reaffirms its commitment to excellence, trust, and constant evolution, consolidating a firm prepared to lead the present and future of the legal sector in Panama. The law firms Quijano & Asociados and De Obaldía & García de Paredes (DEOGAP) announce the formalization of a strategic integration agreement, whereby they unify their capabilities, teams, and trajectories under a single institutional identity: Quijano & Asociados. This integration consolidates over 100 years of accumulated experience — 67 years of Quijano & Asociados' history and 35 years of DEOGAP's renowned practice — positioning the firm among the 10 largest and most influential in Panama. This is a decisive step towards building a stronger, more modern organization, prepared to respond to an increasingly complex and demanding legal environment. Local Strength. As part of this new stage, Quijano & Asociados strategically strengthens its lines focused on the local market, with special emphasis on key practice areas for the country's business development, such as Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A), Banking and Finance, Capital Markets, Public Procurement, Tax Law, and Litigation and Arbitration, in addition to the other practice areas that have historically distinguished both firms, such as Corporate Law and Estate Planning. Unification under a single brand will bring greater clarity to the market, optimize the client experience, and consolidate the firm's reputation as one of the most prominent and influential legal references in Panama. Greater Value for the Client. The purpose of this integration is to generate greater value for our clients.
