Corporate/Commercial | Latin America

Paraguay

In some jurisdictions you will see Corporate/Commercial section instead of Corporate M&A. Corporate/Commercial will cover everything that is covered in Corporate/M&A. However it is not limited to corporate finance but may include project finance and any other type of banking and finance work. Non-transactional corporate advice is perfectly acceptable with the exception of contentious matters, ie, commercial litigation or arbitration which is only considered in the Dispute Resolution section (see below).
