Latin America: 

As one of the most dynamic regions in the world, Latin America presents a wealth of new business prospects and markets for growth. The growing middle class and innovative infrastructure and urban development mean opportunities for international and domestic companies to enter, expand, and invest in the region. To navigate these opportunities, and the challenges that come along with them, clients need legal counsel that understands Latin America.

Hogan Lovells has strong links with Latin America. The firm's Latin America practice lawyers are based in New York, Miami, Houston, Washington DC, Mexico, Monterrey, Madrid, Germany, Asia, and Sao Paulo in Brazil. They speak Spanish and Portuguese, are familiar with the legal systems, and know local counsel in every country. Combining this with the firm’s experience, Hogan Lovells can help clients understand the different environments in each country— both political and business—and will guide clients through complex and varying regulatory regimes. Client success is the firm’s focus.
