Consortium Legal

A key port of call for multi-jurisdictional M&A in the Latin American region, in countries such as Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Nicaragua, full-service firm Consortium Legal is well positioned to handle a varied commercial workload, including joint ventures, incorporations, asset purchase agreements, due diligence processes and corporate governance. Oscar Samour, Diego Martín (who is a go-to practitioner for tax elements of corporate transactions), experienced M&A lawyer Fidel Márquez, Maria Alejandra Tulipano and Felipe Aragón are standout team members. Samour is often involved in majority stake, landmark acquisitions in the consumer goods and retail sectors, sectors in which the broader group are often involved. Tulipano is the practitioner to consider for commercial ventures for public companies, such as public tenders, while Aragón is key for heavily regulated sectors such as the energy sector. Associate Francisco Mendoza and senior associate Gustavo Vega are other names to note, especially in matters related to the formation of international companies in Ecuador.
