Latin America - Latin America: International firms

Paul Hastings LLP

We only have limited information for this firm. Consider the following firms which have provided more information:

Paul Hastings LLP  has built an enviable Latin America practice over the last decade with compliance and investigations being a core practice-segment for the group. The firm frequently represents multinationals that are facing international investigations and enforcement actions, and has also acted for major Latin American corporates regarding internal investigations and engagement with the DOJ, SEC and other agencies. The firm has a range of senior figures in the white-collar defence and investigations sphere that have extensive international experience, including matters that centre on Latin America. Robert Luskin, Nathaniel Edmonds (who chairs the litigation department in Washington DC), and John Darden, all have deep knowledge of the Latin America region. Kwame Manley, global chair of the white-collar defence and investigations group, and Corinne Lammers are also key figures in the team. Bryan Parr has left the firm to join Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP.

Legal 500 Editorial commentary

Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘The firm is sufficiently sophisticated, specialised, and large enough to deal with all matters that, although they are not strictly compliance or white collar, are essential to deal with cases comprehensively. I am referring to strong areas of data protection, labour, criminal law, taxes and litigation. This, added to the firm's extensive experience in white collar defence issues, makes it one of the best US firms to work for.’

  • ‘The white collar litigation practice lead by Nathaniel Edmonds is great. Also, they know the LATAM region very well which makes a difference when it comes to finding the right partner.’
