About

Provided by Dentons Chile

Our experience and knowledge, combined with personalised attention and sense of urgency, enable us to provide practical and flexible advice.  

Our lawyers are experts in representing local and international clients in mining, water, energy, and environmental matters and in resolving any conflict or dispute in arbitration and before ordinary or specialised courts. 

We give comprehensive advice to our clients in all stages of a mining project, including exploration, development, construction, operation, and closure. We specialise in mining concession procedures and their judicial defence, including an extensive judicial and negotiation practice for the constitution of mining easements. 

We also focus on permits and due diligence processes to acquire concessions, options contracts, and promise and purchase agreements for the acquisition of mining concessions, mining companies, shareholder agreements, and construction contracts.

Our services include legal reports on complex issues and coordination with the technical teams of the mining property.

We have a strong litigation department to defend mining companies in different cases and stages related to their projects.

We have developed a team focused on strategic advisory, considering our country´s current regulatory changes. Our practice group also assists real estate and agriculture clients in protecting their land and interests, involved in mining transactions.
