The increase in post-M&A litigation marks a new normal in the transactional market

We share our partner Miguel Cuesta’s contribution to the article “The increase in post-M&A litigation marks a new normal in the transactional market,” published in Cinco Días.

In his statements, Miguel analyzes the causes of the increase in litigation in M&A transactions, highlighting the importance of rigorous due diligence, sector specialization of professionals, and the correct negotiation of R&W (representations & warranties). In addition, he points out that the energy sector, subject to constant regulatory changes and ESG challenges, is one of those with the highest risks of post-transaction conflict.
