Carey

Carey ‘stands out for the extensive experience and professional quality of its partners, along with the tremendous work capacity of its associates’. The large, 32-strong litigation team has an enviable market reputation for its handling of complex civil and commercial disputes, international trade conflicts, and bankruptcy and insolvency proceedings. Highlights include defending German multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology company, Bayer, against a class action that was initiated by consumer association ODECU for alleged Consumer Protection Act infringements. The full-service department comprises several highly-rated litigators, namely: civil, commercial and administrative litigation specialist, Aldo Molinari, who is ’spectacularly intelligent’; Ricardo Reveco, an expert in civil and commercial litigation, as well as arbitration, bankruptcy and insolvency mandates; Juan Carlos Riesco, who in addition to civil, commercial and regulatory litigation, covers antitrust issues and national and international arbitration; the ‘very dedicated’ Mónica Pérez, whose caseload encompasses class actions, contracts, torts, insurance and consumer protection law; and Roberto Villaseca, who is experienced in civil and commercial litigation, alternative dispute resolution, international trade disputes, and bankruptcy and insolvency issues. In the senior associate ranks, the experience of Mirko Villarroel includes supporting Molinari and Pérez with the defence of Swedish fashion retailer H&M against a lawsuit, brought by Inmobiliaria e Inversiones Mall Plaza de los Ríos, for allegedly breaking-off subleasing contract negotiations.
