The team at Consortium Legal leverages the deep bench strength of offices in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Nicaragua to advise private investors, international developers and multinational corporates in the retail, hospitality, construction and shipping sectors, including Maersk and Walmart, on day-to-day matters and in high-value, multi-jurisdictional real estate transactions. The firm’s full skill set covers matters ranging from due diligence and regulatory compliance to sales and purchases, M&A, asset purchases, bulk sales and free trade zone issues. ​​The practice is headed by Juan Manuel Cordero, who specialises in the constitution and modification of condominium regimes, leases, the sale and purchase of hotels, and related antitrust filings; and David Reuben, who handles complex real estate acquisitions and concessions. Seasoned litigator Rolando Laclé Zuñiga brings over three decades of foreign investment experience. Other key figures include senior associates Marcela Alfaro, who brings expertise to energy sector matters, and Daniel Rojas, who advises on the sale and purchase of residential, commercial and mixed-use real estate projects.
