The five-member team at mid-sized firm HD Legal advises companies on a range of M&A mandates. With over 50% of the firm’s clients being foreign companies, the practice is particularly well known among Canadian investors. The group is also increasingly active on behalf of Chilean clients that invest abroad, including structuring investments in Peru and the US for real estate investment funds. The corporate and M&A practice is led by corporate and commercial transactions specialist Gonzalo Delaveau, who is ‘transparent and efficient in the service he provides’; while the broad projects practice of director Mauricio Riesco encompasses energy asset-related M&A. At associate level, Paulina Castro specialises in corporate work and IT, while Demetrio Barros advises on M&A. Former associates Ignacio Araya Paredes and Andrea Alarcón exited the firm in July and October 2023, respectively.
