The international law firm CMS continues to strengthen its Arbitration practice in Ibero-America with the launch of the Ibero-American Arbitration Group (IAG), an initiative that responds to a context in which arbitration has gained increasing relevance in corporate transactions, infrastructure projects, and contracts involving significant technical and financial complexity, particularly in sectors such as energy, construction, mining, telecommunications, and banking.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Lima, May 28, 2026 \u2013 <\/strong>The growing complexity of business operations and the internationalization of commercial relationships have consolidated arbitration as a key mechanism for resolving disputes that are becoming increasingly complex, cross-border, and with a high economic and reputational impact for companies.<\/p>\n

In addition, the evolution of business contracts themselves\u2014now increasingly extensive and sophisticated, structured in accordance with international practices and standards, and governed by their own contractual framework\u2014further reinforces this trend. Their proper interpretation requires proven practical experience, as well as a thorough analysis of documentary and expert evidence, which makes arbitration a particularly suitable framework for this type of litigation.<\/p>\n

In this context, the creation of the Ibero-American Arbitration Group (IAG) by the international firm CMS strengthens an already consolidated and well-recognized arbitration practice in the region, characterized by its strategic approach, sector-specific expertise, and its ability to coordinate teams across multiple jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

The IAG is led by Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Roj\u00ed, partner at CMS Spain, and Rodrigo Campero, partner at CMS Chile, and brings together specialists from CMS offices across Ibero-America. In Peru, the group includes the participation of CMS Grau partners Luis Alberto Li\u00f1\u00e1n and Karina Urquizo, who represent the firm in this regional initiative.<\/p>\n

The team advises on all stages of arbitration, from drafting and negotiating arbitration agreements to conducting domestic and international proceedings, appearing before courts in support of arbitration, and the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards. Likewise, its professionals act both as counsel and arbitrators, providing a comprehensive and practical perspective on dispute resolution.<\/p>\n

One of the main pillars of the practice is its sector-specific focus, with recurring experience in disputes related to sectors such as energy, infrastructure, construction and engineering, banking and financial services, insurance, telecommunications, technology, healthcare and life sciences, real estate and tourism, among others. This specialization allows the team to understand not only the applicable regulatory framework, but also the operational and strategic challenges specific to each industry.<\/p>\n

The Ibero-American Arbitration Group also promotes close collaboration between CMS offices in Europe and Latin America, strengthening the firm\u2019s ability to provide integrated advisory services in international arbitration and complex cross-border disputes.<\/p>\n

CMS impulsa su apuesta por el arbitraje con el lanzamiento de su Grupo Iberoamericano de Arbitraje con presencia en Per\u00fa
\nLa firma internacional CMS contin\u00faa fortaleciendo su pr\u00e1ctica de Arbitraje en Iberoam\u00e9rica con el lanzamiento del Grupo Iberoamericano de Arbitraje (GIA), una iniciativa que responde a un contexto en el que el arbitraje ha adquirido una mayor relevancia en operaciones corporativas, proyectos de infraestructura y contratos de alta complejidad t\u00e9cnica y financiera, especialmente en sectores como energ\u00eda, construcci\u00f3n, miner\u00eda, telecomunicaciones y banca.<\/p>\n

Lima, 28 de mayo de 2026 \u2013 La creciente complejidad de las operaciones empresariales y la internacionalizaci\u00f3n de las relaciones comerciales han consolidado al arbitraje como un mecanismo clave para la resoluci\u00f3n de controversias que est\u00e1n siendo m\u00e1s complejas, transfronterizas y con alto impacto econ\u00f3mico y reputacional para las empresas.
\nA ello se suma la evoluci\u00f3n de los propios contratos empresariales, cada vez m\u00e1s extensos y sofisticados, estructurados conforme a pr\u00e1cticas y est\u00e1ndares internacionales y dotados de un r\u00e9gimen contractual propio. Su correcta interpretaci\u00f3n exige una experiencia pr\u00e1ctica acreditada, as\u00ed como un an\u00e1lisis exhaustivo de la prueba documental y pericial, lo que sit\u00faa al arbitraje como un marco especialmente adecuado para este tipo de litigios.
\nEn este contexto, la creaci\u00f3n del Grupo Iberoamericano de Arbitraje – GIA de la firma internacional CMS refuerza una pr\u00e1ctica de arbitraje ya consolidada y reconocida en la regi\u00f3n, caracterizada por su enfoque estrat\u00e9gico, conocimiento sectorial y su capacidad para coordinar equipos en m\u00faltiples jurisdicciones.
\nEl GIA est\u00e1 liderado por Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Roj\u00ed, socio de CMS Espa\u00f1a, y Rodrigo Campero, socio de CMS Chile, y re\u00fane a especialistas de las distintas oficinas de CMS en Iberoam\u00e9rica. En Per\u00fa, el grupo cuenta con la participaci\u00f3n de los socios de CMS Grau Luis Alberto Li\u00f1\u00e1n y Karina Urquizo, quienes representan a la firma en esta iniciativa regional.
\nEl equipo asesora en todas las fases del arbitraje, desde la redacci\u00f3n y negociaci\u00f3n de convenios arbitrales hasta la direcci\u00f3n de procedimientos nacionales e internacionales, la actuaci\u00f3n ante tribunales de apoyo al arbitraje y el reconocimiento y ejecuci\u00f3n de laudos. Asimismo, sus profesionales act\u00faan tanto como abogados de parte como \u00e1rbitros, aportando una visi\u00f3n integral y pr\u00e1ctica de la resoluci\u00f3n de controversias.
\nUno de los principales ejes de la pr\u00e1ctica es su enfoque sectorial, con una experiencia recurrente en disputas vinculadas a sectores como energ\u00eda, infraestructuras, construcci\u00f3n e ingenier\u00eda, financiero y bancario, seguros, telecomunicaciones, tecnolog\u00eda, salud y ciencias de la vida, inmobiliario y turismo, entre otros. Esta especializaci\u00f3n permite al equipo comprender no solo el marco normativo aplicable, sino tambi\u00e9n los retos operativos y estrat\u00e9gicos propios de cada industria.
\nEl Grupo Iberoamericano de Arbitraje promueve adem\u00e1s una colaboraci\u00f3n estrecha entre las oficinas de CMS en Europa y Am\u00e9rica Latina, fortaleciendo la capacidad de la firma para brindar asesor\u00eda integrada en arbitrajes internacionales y disputas complejas de car\u00e1cter transfronterizo.<\/p>\n
