Pinsent Masons hires corporate partner Francisco Aldavero in Spain

Throughout his 30-year career, Francisco has advised a range of multinational and domestic Spanish clients on investments, divestments, restructuring, managed buy outs, managed buy-ins and leveraged buy-outs. Francisco joins from EY Abogados where he led their M&A and Private Equity practices.

Following the recruitment of Francisco, the firm will have a total of five partners advising on multinational and domestic Spanish corporate and private equity matters.

Inmaculada Castelló, co-managing partner of Pinsent Masons in Spain said, "We are delighted to welcome Francisco to the team to advance our private equity expertise in Spain adding strength and depth to our corporate practice. His expertise will enable us to build our multinational and domestic Spanish capabilities and continue to establish the firm as a market leader.”

The firm’s Madrid-based M&A and private equity specialists have advised on a number of high profile deals in recent years such as supporting Aire Networks on its acquisition of a 75% stake in technology business Stackscale and Parsina Investments on its acquisition of Cades Penedès.

Commenting on his move Francisco Aldavero said, "I am proud to join the Pinsent Masons team and I am looking forward to this new challenge supporting the Firm's clients in their growth and divestment needs, both in Spain and globally.”
