Spanish law firm Ventura Garcés has hired Teresa Olivié as a director in the areas of regulatory compliance, administrative law, and energy law. Olivié spent 14 years at Naturgy in various legal positions, most recently as head of compliance.

Claudi Garcés, managing partner of the Barcelona office of Ventura Garcés, said: “We are very happy with the arrival of Teresa. I believe that her experience in the energy sector will be of great help to the firm, since it is a sector that is on the rise and will be key in the coming months given the worrying circumstances that we are experiencing in Europe.”

Olivié also has extensive experience in administrative law and litigation, regulated sectors, and regulatory compliance. She also has experience in significant international arbitration.

“Teresa's incorporation reflects the Firm's commitment to adding talent and continuing to grow in various sectors such as regulatory compliance or energy law and offering the client the best advice with experienced professionals. In addition, Teresa is a great professional and her way of working fits perfectly with the philosophy of Ventura Garcés” said Víctor de Cambra, managing partner of the Madrid office. “We especially value her ability to lead her teams, as well as her experience working in different languages.”

Garcés has a law degree from Universidad Pontificia Comillas and a master’s degree in European Community law from the Polytechnic University of Madrid.
