A/C/R Legal is rapidly emerging as a key player in Chile’s projects and infrastructure sector since its founding in April 2024. Established by three former CMS partners, the firm was created with a clear focus on M&A, infrastructure and project development – particularly in the energy and mining industries. The firm has played a crucial role in some of Chile’s largest and most significant transactions, including the sale of ENAMI’s stake in Quebrada Blanca to Codelco, and Enlight’s acquisition of La Huayca Solar Pack. The team has also been instrumental in advising on cutting-edge renewable energy projects, including the sale by Verano Energy of its flagship green ammonia project. The practice also continues to support major infrastructure clients, including Manuchar, on complex regulatory and transactional matters. Luis Felipe Arze is a recognised leader in the sector, with over two decades’ experience advising on energy and infrastructure transactions. Fernando de Cárcer brings extensive experience in public and private infrastructure tenders, agribusiness, and renewable energy projects, advising on all aspects from rights consolidation to long-term project exploitation. Sebastián Barros is widely regarded for his expertise in M&A and project finance, having led some of the firm’s most high-profile transactions.
