Veria Asesores

The former ECIJA Colombia-team has departed the Spanish-headquartered firm to relaunch as an independent firm, Veria Asesores, a 32-strong, heavily tech-oriented boutique. Given the firm's novelty - it launched in September 2025 - its current client roster remains unclear; however, the team - much of which has been together since it's pre-ECIJA incarnation, MBCR - has a proven track record across the TMT sector. The group combines an increasingly prominent media and entertainment offering with a robust regulatory practice, which leverages its competition expertise to advise on data and consumer protection law. Department co-head Patricia Renjifo is highly regarded for media and entertainment work, where she ‘specialises in meeting the needs of the audio-visual sector’. Fellow co-head Pablo Márquez — a former Executive Director of the Communications Regulation Commission — is recommended for ICT and telecoms regulation. Former senior associate Paula Gutiérrez de Piñeres departed for Netflix in May 2025.
