In Latin America, our breadth of experience and deep connections throughout the region make WilmerHale a go-to firm that can respond quickly and efficiently when clients’ critical matters arise there. Due to recent developments in Latin America, US and multinational organizations have expressed renewed interest in investment in the region, and we are well-positioned to advise companies and individuals doing business in and with Latin American countries on
investigations, international arbitration and other matters. Our lawyers have handled significant matters in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, Uruguay, Venezuela and Mexico, as well as in Spain, which has significant economic and cultural ties with Latin America. The firm has a large pool of lawyers at all levels with experience in the region and fluency in Spanish and Portuguese. Many of these individuals are native speakers, while others bring a wide breadth of experience from living and working in Latin America. This is a key asset given the diversity of political systems and cultural differences among Latin American countries. In addition, WilmerHale’s team is complemented by an exceptional network of in-country local counsel with experience in a wide range of practice areas, as well as other Latin America-based professional services firms.
