As far as one client is concerned, Bofill Escobar Silva Abogados is ‘one of the best firms around for complex litigation’. Focused exclusively on business dispute resolution, the firm’s sizeable 28-strong practice is consistently mandated to act in high-profile or politically-sensitive disputes before local and foreign courts, governmental authorities and international arbitration tribunals. The team’s areas of expertise cover the litigation of cases involving civil, commercial, tax, antitrust and regulatory issues; and it regularly represents motorway, airport and other public works concessionaires in litigation before and against public entities, in relation to infrastructure, real estate and construction projects. The group additionally stands out for complex cases which involve the addressing of commercial, reputational and financial aspects. The firm further maintains a widely-respected white-collar crime litigation practice. The group is co-led by commercial litigation, international arbitration and white-collar crime expert, Jorge Bofill; Francisco Aninat, who has ’significant experience in complex, high-stakes international disputes’; and Sebastián Yanine, who is notably focused on complex disputes and cross-border litigation. The second line of experienced litigators includes criminal litigation specialist César Ramos; and of counsel Marcela Vega, who acts in commercial, civil, criminal and labour trials, as well as contentious-administrative matters concerning public institutions and superintendencies. Names to note among a capable associate group include Juan Luis Chomali, Nicolás del Real Castillo, Catalina Escobar and Paz Arriagada.
