Our lawyers have been consistently recognized by Chambers Latin America across many practice areas, including Corporate/M&A, Banking & Finance, Capital Markets, Energy and Natural Resources and International Arbitration.
Our team is also recognized by Legal 500 Latin America in the areas of Projects & Energy, Corporate/M&A, Banking & Finance, Capital Markets and International Arbitration. Sources have told that publication:
“Sidley Austin LLP ‘is among the best; it is extraordinary’.”
In recent years, we increased our transactional, regulatory and litigation capabilities in Latin America, particularly in the energy, project development and finance and communications sectors, with the opening and expansion of our Houston office. Additionally, we further expanded our reach into Latin America with the addition of two teams of lawyers in Dallas who focus on litigation and private equity and include several members who are native Spanish speakers and have active practices in Latin America. Latin America is a strategic area for Sidley, so we will continue to look for opportunities to grow and invest in the region.
