About

Provided by Barros & Errázuriz Abogados

Barros & Errázuriz has been consistently recognized as a leading firm in terms of both local and cross-border Mergers and Acquisitions, which has kept us consistently preferred among clients for advising them in their companies’ processes of acquisition, sale or merging.

As part of the advice we offer our clients, we contemplate the different negotiation phases, the legal review of a company or due diligence, and the preparation of all the necessary documentation to close the transaction, including shareholder agreements. Likewise, we have extensive experience in joint ventures.

The acquired prestige has allowed our firm to participate in some of the most relevant merger and acquisition operations carried out in Chile, including, among others, private acquisition processes in national and transnational takeovers, minority share purchases, divestments and corporate restructuring.
