Partner in the Insolvency and Labour Litigation Department
Pablo Martínez Varela joined IUS + AEQUITAS in 2014, as head of the Labour Law Department and, subsequently, coordinating the Restructuring and Insolvency Department of the Firm.
Since the beginning of his career, almost 20 years ago, he has been closely linked to the auditing of accounts and financial analysis, having collaborated in numerous audits. Leveraging his accounting and financial expertise, he is involved in corporate reorganisations and corporate restructurings.
He also has extensive experience, both practical and theoretical, in the Corporate Jurisdiction, a jurisdiction in which he has been involved since the beginning of his professional practice and in which he has intervened in hundreds of cases.
In the field of insolvency law, he has been an Insolvency Practitioner since 2013. Since then, he has intervened in more than one hundred (100) insolvency proceedings, either as an Insolvency Lawyer, as Insolvency Practitioner or in defence of the interests of creditors or providing advice to creditors, both in the monitoring of their claims and intervening in complex restructuring operations (mainly acquisitions of Production Units).
Having completed a Master’s Degree in the Practice of Procedural Labour Law and Social Security Law, and a Master’s Degree in Insolvency Administration, he currently directs and coordinates the Restructuring and Insolvency department and the Labour department of IUS+AEQUITAS; intervening, in turn, in numerous insolvency proceedings as Insolvency Practitioner throughout Spain and coordinator of the legal and economic areas of the Insolvency Administration teams.
