Chambers & Partners Guide 2014

For some years now, the Chambers & Partners Guide assesses the reputation and competence of thousands of lawyers in Europe on the basis of interviews that their investigation team carries out directly with clients and other lawyers.

This year’s Guide highlights Faus & Moliner’s expertise in the issues that the industry is currently facing, as well as the firm’s versatility in dealing with clients of all sizes and its status as a valued advisor both for the industry and for policy-makers.

The Guide describes Faus & Moliner as “a prestigious boutique which advises pharma and healthcare clients on the full range of issues affecting the industry. It acts on behalf of large companies and smaller biotech start-ups, and is frequently called to advise public authorities on matters such as draft legislation.”

The firm’s strengths are defined by the clients themselves in their interviews. “The lawyers are tremendously dynamic; they have that international experience which is so important”, the Guide quotes one client. “We have always had a positive experience; the lawyers are experienced and offer a global vision”, states another.

According to the Guide, notable practitioners of the Law are at work in Faus & Moliner: “Department head Jordi Faus enjoys a strong reputation in the market”. According to clients, “you ring him for advice and find he has all the information at his fingertips. He is clear, pragmatic and trustworthy.”

Xavier Moliner is described as “experienced, talented and flexible”, and earns praise for his skill in complex corporate work and problem-solving abilities.

Public law expert Juan Suárez is considered a strong presence in the market. Clients note that he is “clear and commercially minded.”
