The firm strengthens its Corporate practice with the appointment of Juan Andrés Bretón.

“These last few years have been especially intense for our Corporate team, so it is with great pride that we welcome Juan Andrés as a partner, who has demonstrated exceptional capabilities, tireless work, great empathy, gracious leadership and the commitment to excellence that distinguishes our firm,” said managing partner Rodrigo Ferrada.

“The corporate area of FerradaNehme is and will continue to maintain a boutique style, seeking to advise only a few large clients in complex and challenging matters. As is the case with out other practice areas, we want to take on work in which we can provide significant added value, in addition to maintaining proximity, speed and personalization in each assignment. The sustained development and growth of our corporate practice over the last few years leads us to believe that these differentiating elements are very well perceived by our clients,” added Juan Andrés Bretón.

He has more than ten years of experience in Corporate Law, specifically in mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, foreign investment, tax advice and corporate reorganizations. He focuses his work especially in M&A and in advising, structuring, and negotiating commercial agreements, acquisitions, financings, and high complex commercial contracts. He holds a law degree from Universidad Diego Portales and has a master’s degree in Taxation from the School of Economics and Business of the Universidad de Chile.
