For the 11^th Edition of The Best Lawyers in Colombia, we're spotlighting Bogotá, the top metropolitan area by number of recognized lawyers.

The most-searched practice area in Colombia was Tax Law, followed by Labor and Employment Law, Corporate and Mergers and Acquisitions Law, and Litigation. Corporate and Mergers and Acquisitions Law saw the most growth in terms of the number of recognized lawyers in that practice area. Arbitration and Mediation, Labor and Employment Law, and Tax Law followed.
