Our Latin America team has been counseling and representing clients on a multitude of Latin America cross-border matters for over 60 years.

We advise clients who want to invest in, do business in or settle disputes in Latin America. We also advise clients who are based in Latin America and want to invest in, do business in and settle disputes in the United States or elsewhere in the world.

Houston

Houston, one of the gateway cities to Latin America and our oldest and largest location, has afforded us the opportunity to develop a number of significant contacts in Latin America.

New York

New York,  the financial capital of the Americas, gives us the opportunity to work for many clients in, or with interest in, Latin America.  Our other Texas offices—Dallas, San Antonio and Austin—as well as our Los Angeles office, further enhance our strategic proximity to Latin America. Our Latin America team has advised clients on matters in virtually every country in Latin America.
