About

Provided by Mendoza

Mendoza is a Bogotá based highly specialised law firm in corporate finance, project finance, sovereign debt, financial regulation, structured finance and capital markets. In just seven years, the firm has built a strong niche advising on complex, cross border, heavily documented financings governed by New York and Colombian law, often involving multi jurisdictional collateral packages, true sale arrangements, bankruptcy remote structures and sophisticated credit enhancement mechanisms.

The firm focuses on innovative and technically demanding transactions, applying a modern, commercially driven approach grounded in deep regulatory and transactional analysis. Mendoza is equally adept at representing lenders, borrowers, sponsors, quasi sovereign entities, financial institutions and market intermediaries, and is consistently recognised for its ability to provide bespoke, partner led advice, its responsiveness, and its capacity to lead negotiations in high pressure environments.
