Latin America

Latin America is one of the world's most important centres for investment, infrastructure, energy and natural resources. For businesses operating across the region, success requires advisors who understand the market, appreciate its commercial realities and can navigate complex cross-border transactions, disputes and regulatory challenges.

Led by Shawn Doyle, Managing Partner, Latin America, our team advises clients throughout the region on international matters involving mining, infrastructure, power, energy, capital markets, financial services and international arbitration. Leveraging the full strength of McCarthy Tétrault's national platform, we help clients navigate opportunities and challenges that cross borders and jurisdictions.

Local presence. Global perspective.

As with our offices in London and New York, our Latin American office does not practise local law, but offers international legal support and industry-specific expertise. We work alongside leading local law firms throughout the region, combining their jurisdiction-specific expertise with our experience advising on sophisticated cross-border transactions, disputes and strategic business matters.

Our clients operate in industries that are helping shape the future of the global economy. Many are investing in projects, businesses and opportunities that span jurisdictions, markets and regulatory frameworks.

We support clients on matters involving:

• Mergers and acquisitions
• Capital markets and securities transactions
• Infrastructure and project development
• Power and energy
• Mining and critical minerals
• International arbitration and disputes
• Financial services
• Cross-border strategic investments

Our approach is practical, internationally focused and informed by deep regional experience. Whether clients are investing in Latin America, raising capital, developing major projects or resolving complex disputes, we help them move forward with confidence.

Built on relationships

Our Latin American office reflects the relationships we have built with clients, businesses and law firms throughout the region over many years. We maintain an on-the-ground presence and partner closely with leading local counsel across Latin America, combining local insight with internationally focused legal advice to help clients achieve their business objectives.
