Hernández & Cía

Plus d’information
Hernández & Cía’s mining team provides comprehensive advice to a range of both national and international companies in the mining industry, handling matters that range from exploration and extraction issues to project development and financing, permitting and regulatory compliance. Recognised for his significant expertise in the development of mining projects, Luis Felipe Huertas Del Pino jointly leads the team together in conjunction with mining, environmental and arbitration expert Luis Rodríguez-Mariátegui; and Miyanou Dufour, whose broad practice spans regulatory matters, the negotiation of corporate and financing contracts and mining project development. The senior team was further strengthened in January 2024 with the promotion of Juan Pablo Macassi to the partnership; he is an additional key contact for matters related to exploration and exploitation. Also promoted at the start of the year, counsel Lorena Tanji focuses on mining and environmental regulation; while senior associate Joseline Pérez's practice centres on regulatory matters and occupational health-and-safety in the mining sector.
