Founded in 2017, specialist mining, environmental and corporate law firm Claussen & Velasco routinely acts for Chilean and international mining companies, as well as businesses operating in the mining sector’s supply chain.

Jointly leading the group at name-partner level, current director of national mining company ENAMI, Carlos Claussen, regularly acts in contentious mining matters; and Felipe Velasco advises mining sector-related companies on commercial, corporate and tax issues.
