With its ‘deep knowledge and understanding’ of both local and international markets, the corporate and M&A team at Vouga Abogados remains a leading practice. The team handles major investment projects and high-profile M&A, with clients such as Paracel and Copetrol. The firm advises clients from a range of industries and has noted particular activity in the agribusiness sector. The practice has increased its focus on compliance, advising clients on the development and implementation of compliance programmes. The firm has been involved in the drafting of several regulations within the corporate practice area, including a bill for the enactment of a new type of corporation and its regulatory decree. Rodolfo Vouga leads the team, alongside Perla Alderete and Rodolfo Guillermo Vouga, who both come with client recommendation. They are supported by up-and-coming figure Rodrigo Fernández and Carlos Vouga, who is praised for his ‘deep knowledge of M&A and corporate matters, quick responses and precision in his arguments and solutions’. At the associate level, Cecilia Vera and Manuel Acevedo both play active roles in the team. Georg Birbaumer, Walter Vera and Luis Torales are also contacts to note.
