Legal tradition, international projection
Founded in 1960, Espino Nieto has extensive experience supporting corporate clients in the development of their businesses. Based in El Salvador, we are recognized as one of the country’s leading law firms. Through a trusted network of correspondent firms across Central America, we have established a strong presence in the regional legal market.
From our earliest days, Espino Nieto began forming alliances with law firms around the world, opening a pathway to the international legal market. These collaborations, particularly with major firms in key jurisdictions, enriched our perspective and helped shape our firm’s global vision.
Our philosophy has always been to build genuine, long-lasting relationships with our clients. We consider ourselves strategic partners—more than just legal advisors. We actively participate in our clients’ projects, working closely with them to achieve their goals. This approach continues to distinguish our practice and reflect the values that have defined us for over six decades.
Our team of lawyers and collaborators bring deep academic and professional expertise, consistently delivering legal counsel of the highest quality.
Espino Nieto has been recognized by the leading international legal directories Chambers & Partners y LEGAL 500, among others. The Latin Lawyer 250 describes us as a firm with “strong regional and international ties.” We have had the privilege of advising numerous Fortune 500 companies and continue to lead by offering innovative legal solutions. We have been shortlisted as law firm of the year in the CHAMBERS & PARTNERS ranking recently.
