At Garrigues, we make it our priority to identify, develop and build the loyalty of the best professionals in their respective areas. In our business, talent is key.
In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic heavily impacted the way we manage our people. One of the biggest challenges facing Garrigues as an organization was to respond to the new situation and keep all our processes running efficiently while at the same time staying in close contact with candidates.
Digitalization is a strategic focus at Garrigues. Not only have we incorporated technological advances that make us more efficient and enable us to better serve our clients, we have also committed to our signature approach to innovation, combining internal and external development and input from our team and clients, to ensure that every step we take is fully aligned with the firm’s global strategy.
In a year heavily impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, Garrigues has stepped up its corporate outreach and pro bono work for charitable, welfare, cultural, civic, research and educational institutions. The firm has also continued its applied legal research, knowledge sharing activities and support of awards recognizing excellence in the study of business law.
At Garrigues, we continue to work to ensure that our business model is environmentally responsible, enabling us to comply with environmental legislation while at the same time preventing or mitigating the impacts of our business and reducing our carbon footprint.
We have pledged to help drive the shift towards a circular economy by promoting the following lines of action under Garrigues’ Eco-efficiency Program: sustainable, healthy and accessible workplaces; responsible consumption; waste management; energy efficiency, energy from renewable sources with guarantee of origin and climate change; and environmental awareness.
The firm has continued to build on the growth seen in past years, which has been strongly driven by our international expansion, particularly in Latin America. Our financial performance has locked in our position of leadership and prestige in the Spanish legal services industry and in the main international markets in which we operate.
