The ‘unparalleled’ team continues to add to its extensive clientele, taking on new clients across the pharmaceutical, oil and gas and real estate industries. It handles M&A, JVs, and the incorporation of companies, as well as dissolutions and liquidations. Clients also retain the firm to provide corporate and commercial advice on an ongoing, day-to-day basis. The practice excels in the negotiation of various commercial contracts and the drafting of distribution contracts for international companies. The firm has also developed a strong practice of advising family holdings in the corporate and agribusiness sectors, handling restructurings and drafting internal protocols. Hugo T. Berkemeyer and Carla Sosa lead the team alongside Manuel Arias, who handles corporate and commercial matters on behalf of both national and international companies. Associate Antonio Berkemeyer plays a lead role in some of the team’s key mandates, with a particular focus on corporate compliance, while Alexander Berkemeyer excels in the negotiation and revision of contracts. As well as participating in M&A, associate Andrés Nasser also focuses his practice on commercial contracts. Milena Sljivich, Vivian Maldonado and Álvaro Rojas are also active associates in the team.
