Chambers Guides to the World`s Leading Lawyers 2010

Latinalliance continues to flourish, and the lawyers are commended for being “practical, extremely responsive and diligent in their approach,” as well as “reasonable and transparent on fees.” Clients especially admire the team for knowing “how to strike the balance between the legal and business aspects of any matter to get the deal closed,” and benefit from the firm's links throughout Central America via its membership of Latin Alliance. The firm is widely recommended for its strength in IP matters but it also handles a range of transactional corporate and M&A work, and recently won several first authorisations about undisclosed data concerning safety or efficacy on behalf of a number of pharmaceutical clients. Managing partner José Adolfo Torres led the team on this work and is singled out as an excellent adviser on M&A and corporate matters. Raúl Ernesto Pineda impresses market observers with his securities and M&A credentials. He recently worked alongside Torres in advising Banco G&T Continental on a USD5 million share offering. Clients strongly recommend associate Roberto Hernández for his solid expertise in corporate and IP matters: "He is a young and dynamic attorney who is always one step ahead in deals and  is mindful of the bigger picture," report interviewees. His highlight work has included advising telecoms operator Grupo ACC on the licensing procedures and negotiation of interconnection agreements in El Salvador.
