Our natural resources, energy and infrastructure unit is recognized as a leader in mining practice in Ecuador. Clients’ portfolios represent more than half of the mining concessions granted in Ecuador since 2016. Moreover, at least four of these have been categorized as second-generation projects due to their importance within the mining sector.
The team has multidisciplinary expertise in mining, energy, environment and sustainability, advising on complex legal issues and sustainable practices including concession acquisition, permitting, environmental compliance and licensing, land acquisition, consultation, aboriginal rights, negotiation of investment protection agreements and general regulatory matters. Drawing on this broad experience, the firm has successfully expanded its practice to renewable energy, oil and gas.
