40th Under 40th

Oller Abogados’ Senior Partner, Pedro Oller is one of Central America’s top lawyers under 40
March 1st, 2005

We are proud to share that our senior partner, Pedro Oller, has been selected by the prestigious Latin Lawyer Magazine as one of Central America’s top 40 lawyers under the age of 40 years.

The magazine conducted a survey amongst industry leaders, attorneys and subscribers in Latin America, the United States and elsewhere to determine the leading lawyers pursuant to the aforementioned premises, living and working in Central America (Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama). The results were published in their February/March edition.

Ivette Franco Koroneos, legal director of Copa Airlines commented "We have always received high quality services from him. His opinions and legal advice are always very accurate, and he shows an exceptional personal commitment to our company, exceeding our expectations. He is an outstanding lawyer." At the same time, his peers stated that Pedro has "Great capacity, dynamism and experience with clients from the best companies in Central America."

According to Mister Oller, the designation evidences the firm’s positioning as a key player in the Central American market. "We have consistently thought of Oller Abogados as a regional firm, even if we are solely based out of San José. Our client’s work has allowed us to include, on a regular basis, Central America and the Caribbean as part of our day-to-day activities and this is showcased by Latin Lawyer’s study."

Pedro Oller, 34, is the founding and now senior partner of the firm that bears his family’s surname. Upon returning home from the LLM program at Duke University School of Law, Pedro initially partnered with a local firm and subsequently became regional counsel for GBM Corporation. In 2000, he founded Oller Abogados with father Enrique Oller. He currently concentrates on arbitration proceedings and corporate matters. He is married to Ren&eeacute;e Gonzalez and is father to Jimena and Enrique (to be born in the month of May, 2005).
