Work & experience
Provided by Orienta Legal
Our approach is preventive by design: we build structures that hold, and we are usually engaged from the outset, where precedent is limited. Recent work spans market-defining M&A and multi-entity spin-offs, shareholder representation in Bolivia's critical energy infrastructure, lithium sector mandates, financing and liquidity structures built for a restricted foreign-exchange environment, and precedent-setting tax and labour litigation. Members of the IBA and IFA.
