It is with great pleasure that I introduce the 2025 edition of the GC Powerlist: Peru, a publication that celebrates the outstanding achievements and far-reaching influence of the country’s most impressive in-house legal professionals. It has been a privilege to lead this year’s research and connect with a wide range of legal minds whose dedication, innovation, and resilience continue to shape the Peruvian corporate landscape in remarkable ways.
This edition highlights the legal leaders who have not only demonstrated legal excellence but also displayed extraordinary foresight in navigating today’s evolving challenges — whether regulatory, technological, or strategic. Their stories, insights, and approaches to leadership reflect a profession that is increasingly central to business decision-making and risk management at the highest level.
From sectors such as energy and infrastructure to financial services, telecommunications, and beyond, this year’s featured counsel bring with them a depth of expertise that transcends traditional legal boundaries. They are not merely stewards of legal compliance; they are trusted business partners, strategic thinkers, and guardians of corporate integrity.
What stands out most in this edition is the unshakeable commitment to adaptability and long-term thinking. Whether dealing with regulatory complexity, fast-moving political developments or digital transformation, Peru’s in-house legal professionals are meeting the moment with confidence and clarity. Many have also embraced the role of agents for change, leading the way on key issues such as sustainability, ethical governance, and diversity and inclusion.
You will find in these pages not only recognition of established figures, but also a spotlight on emerging talent — individuals whose drive and fresh perspectives are already leaving their mark on the profession. Their collective voice provides a window into the current and future direction of in-house legal work in Peru, and a testament to its vitality, innovation, and global relevance.
On behalf of The Legal 500, I extend my sincere thanks to all those who took the time to share their experiences with us. It is an honour to present this year’s GC Powerlist: Peru — a showcase of the finest in-house lawyers working in the country today and a celebration of the essential role they play in shaping the future of Peruvian business.

The Legal 500
Legal 500 was delighted to return to Santiago for the launch of the GC Powerlist: Chile 2025, in association with Carey. The event gathered many of Chile’s leading in-house legal professionals for an evening of discussion and networking.
The evening opened with remarks from Jaime Carey, Managing Partner at Carey, who offered perspectives on the evolving role of general counsel in Chile and the wider region.
This was followed by a keynote address from Macarena Vargas, General Counsel at Codelco, who spoke about the scope of the general counsel role, the development of in-house legal teams within companies, and expectations of external advisers.
The event concluded with a reception, where guests enjoyed the chance to connect with peers in a relaxed and convivial setting.
We extend our thanks to all our speakers for their valuable contributions, and to Carey for supporting the recognition of Chile’s outstanding general counsel community.
