Bogotá Executive Partner Enrique Gómez-Pinzón was mentioned in an article by Asuntos Legales about the current state of the job market for lawyers in Colombia. The article highlighted that, although there is a large number of law school graduates each year, the demand leans toward lawyers focused in specific areas. Mr. Gómez-Pinzón emphasized the importance of specialization in the field of law to meet the needs of clients and take advantage of emerging job opportunities.
"Today, a lawyer cannot be a generalist and provide services in various areas of law, as in the past. Instead, they must have a specific specialty to correctly advise their clients. Due to this, there are increasingly more job offers for lawyers specialized in these new areas," he said.
