Prieto Abogados

The 29-strong practice at full-service firm Prieto Abogados has an enviable M&A track record in major cross-border deals, private equity transactions and joint ventures; and during 2022, the firm was particularly active in deals involving the insurance, energy, banking, utilities and sanitary sectors. The multidisciplinary M&A team additionally leverages support from the firm’s tax, labour, corporate, environmental and litigation departments. The practice is co-led by M&A, joint venture and bidding process expert, Juan Tagle; and Fernando Bravo, who routinely advises energy sector clients. A further line of experienced partners features energy and natural resources sector expert, José Andrés Pascual; the recently-promoted Isabel Wolleter, who works on both capital markets and corporate and M&A matters; and corporate law, M&A, and infrastructure and construction project practitioner, Nicolás Yuraszeck. At non-partner level, counsels Federico Rodríguez and Maite Larrañaga, along with senior associates Aníbal Larrain and Andrés Laymuns (a July 2022 returnee from Anglo American), are additional active advisers.
