Our Latin America Group advises companies, financial institutions, investors, and fund managers engaged in cross-border business in the region, particularly in capital markets, finance, private funds, M&A, and restructuring. With an office in São Paulo and integrated teams in New York, London, Paris, Los Angeles and Boston, we bring regional fluency together with the strength of Proskauer’s global platform.
Our team includes lawyers fluent in Portuguese and Spanish, with a deep understanding of the business cultures, market dynamics, and legal landscapes that shape transactions across Latin America. Clients gain more than regional experience; they gain coordinated access to the right Proskauer lawyers for each matter.
We also collaborate with local markets through our membership and support of local industry associations such as the Brazilian Venture Capital and Private Equity (ABVCAP) and the Association for Private Capital Investment in Latin America (LAVCA).
Our approach has earned recognition from Chambers Latin America, including rankings for capital markets, banking, project finance, and mergers and acquisitions. Chambers has noted our “spectacular and reliable presence in equity and bond work” and our “fast-paced and top-quality performance” in mergers and acquisitions work. The group has also been recognized in Brazil for banking, finance, and capital markets matters, and our lawyers have received “Deal of the Year” honors from trade publications including Global Banking & Markets, LatinFinance, LatinLawyer and Project Finance.
