Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer is a leading international law firm. With over 2,400 lawyers in 28 offices around the world, we provide a comprehensive worldwide service to national and multinational corporations, financial institutions and governments.

Our international approach is founded on strong local capabilities and experience. We can build teams that are not limited by geographical boundaries or the specialisms of individuals, to deliver the highest standards of service wherever our clients need them.

Our Latin America team advises clients active in the region as well as those based in Latin America and investing or conducting business elsewhere in the world. We work with local law firms throughout the region to provide high-quality, coordinated advice based on extensive international experience and local knowledge. Our specialists share an understanding of Latin America’s legal systems and culture and speak Spanish and Portuguese. Our multinational group includes both common law and civil law lawyers who have a full understanding of the Latin American legal framework, and includes lawyers from Argentina, Chile and Colombia. In foreign investment disputes involving the region we bring together the expertise and resources of our leading arbitration practice - number one in Europe - and the ability to conduct cases in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

We provide clients with an outstanding level of service on Latin American transactions and disputes by bringing together the resources of our specialist Latin America team with the sector and product expertise available through our international network, and where appropriate, the best local law firms for individual transactions.
