Team head and economic crime specialist Jorge Boldt assists with risk assessments, along with company-related internal investigations into fraud, corruption, medical liability and environmental damages. At associate level, the caseload of senior Lorena Avendaño covers both civil litigation and criminal defence work; Simona Marquet is experienced in compliance matters and internal investigations; Camila Arenas assists with economic crime mandates and compliance programmes; and Cristóbal Thompson’s practice encompasses companies’ internal investigations, compliance model implementation and criminal litigation.
