Mrs Isabel Monge > Prieto Abogados > Santiago, Chile > Lawyer Profile

Prieto Abogados‘ 27-strong projects and infrastructure team has a strong market reputation for its advice on the development, implementation, financing and acquisition of projects. The group was recently notably active in relation to the construction of battery energy storage systems, desalinisation plants and a power transmission line project. The team’s key practitioners are: Juan Tagle, whose expertise covers power plants, transmission lines, ports, and mining and desalinisation construction projects, as well as joint ventures and bidding processes; banking and finance head Mario Gorziglia, an adviser on significant corporate reorganisations and project financing; projects and infrastructure specialist Nicolás Yuraszeck K, who has ‘a very global vision of the interests of each party involved’ and longstanding experience in construction projects, tender processes, project finance, regulatory matters and project-related M&A deals; and counsel Isabel Monge, who is experienced in the financing of mining, electricity transmission and renewable energy projects, as well as automobile, agriculture and electro mobility sector-related work. At associate level, intermediate Emilio Del Real is another consistent adviser on projects and infrastructure. In a boost to the practice, Andrés Laymuns, whose wide-ranging expertise includes engineering projects for the energy, green hydrogen and mining industries, was promoted to practice director in January 2024.
