Regional legal head Latam - senior counsel and senior director | Syneos Health

What are the most significant cases or transactions that your legal team has recently been involved in?

My team is comprised of Argentinian attorneys that manage global transactions. Some of the attorneys within the team manage the strategic accounts at Syneos. The strategic accounts comprise of a list of the top 50 pharmaceutical companies around the globe and manage any interaction or strategic advice that may be required. I am specifically tasked to manage the Buenos Aires HUB, assisting different lines of the business to start their set-up in the country and bring their new business to Argentina. In some cases, this entails consideration of the legal landscape of a less developed area of expertise within the country.

As we enter the next decade, what do you think the in-house lawyer of the future will look like?

An in-house lawyer comes with a bright mindset for identifying risks and strategically thinking of alternatives to mitigate those risks. With that in mind, an attorney would always be a great resource aligned with a business, to allow the aiding and consideration of whether certain deals should be undertaken, and also to add a differing and critical opinion. I consider an attorney to be a great resource to any business, as we are trusted advisors to the businesses we work with.

How do you suggest in-house lawyers build strong relationships with business partners?

Strong relationships can be built with business partners by having awareness of the service offerings, as well as the internal and external client. Once in-house lawyers are knowledgeable of the client and their end goal, a partnership forms, in which both client and lawyer can share ideas while working towards a shared goal. Communication is also essential; an in-house lawyer will be working with the wider company, thus dropping legal jargon and making an effort to integrate is crucial.
