60 million turnover in 2026. This is Ontier's short-term objective and it seems that it is on the right track to fulfill its strategic plan, since the global turnover of the firm led by Bernardo Gutiérrez de la Roza increased by 13% in 2022 , reaching 43.58 million euros.
With the United Kingdom, Italy and Mexico as the main drivers of this growth, the commercial department is the one that contributes the greatest income to the accounts of the firm whose corporate headquarters has been in London since the end of 2015. It is followed by the litigation and arbitration areas, tax and banking, while energy and digital are experiencing strong growth.
In 2022, Ontier took another step in its business model and opened capital to partners, a movement that was completed in 2023 with the entry of 13 partners from Spain, Mexico, Peru, Italy and the United States, although the office assures that there will be other additions in the coming months.
Furthermore, the firm was very active in the transfer market throughout last year. Thus, he incorporated Francisco Javier Loriente as partners in Spain, in the public department; Jaime Peiro, as prosecutor; José María Fernández Mota, in labor; and Natalia Callejo, in real estate. In addition, Daniel Gutiérrez also joined, after integrating his firm DG Law, specialized in innovation and digital economy.
Also in 2022, Lucía González in energy, and Jorge Perujo, in commercial, were promoted to the partnership. Promotions that have continued in 2023 with that of Víctor Artola, as a commercial partner, in addition to the signing from DAC Beachcroft as a litigation and arbitration partner of Mercedes Romero, who arrived accompanied by Antonio Góngora, Lucía Puente and Rafael Montejo.
Likewise, in 2022, Ontier España, after 14 years on Paseo de la Castellana, moved to the Habana building, property of the Socimi Árima Real Estate, whose remodeling work has been signed by the Fenwick Iribarren studio. The new headquarters has an area of 4,356 square meters - compared to the previous 2,800 - on four floors, plus 816 of surrounding garden and another 587 of landscaped attic.
These new offices also have a new managing partner, since the firm decided to change its management leadership in February 2023. Thus, it appointed Cristina Camarero as managing partner in Spain, while Pedro Rodero took up the position of executive president of the organization in our country.
