Garrigues entered the US market in 1973 with the opening of its New York office, and was the first Spanish firm to open an office abroad.
In addition to serving as a gateway to the world’s leading legal and financial market, the team acts as a bridge between North America, Europe and Latin America, providing clients with comprehensive support to help them navigate business challenges and pursue opportunities in international markets.
How does Garrigues assist companies and investors in transactions between North America, Europe and Latin America?
From New York, Garrigues advises US and Canadian companies, investment funds, financial institutions and investors on Spanish law, including mergers and acquisitions, private equity, taxation, financing, restructuring, securities markets, and investment structure planning.
At the same time, it supports its European and Latin American clients in their investments and projects in the US and Canada, coordinating advice with leading North American law firms on particularly complex matters. This capability is further enhanced by the firm’s own teams in Mexico, Chile, Colombia and Peru, enabling it to offer an integrated platform in Latin America and specialized advice on Mexican, Chilean, Colombian and Peruvian law.
What role does Mexico play as a bridge between the United States and Latin America?
America. Mexico’s consolidation as one of the firm’s key markets has strengthened its ability to support North American companies in their investments in the region and to advise Latin American companies with interests in the United States and the broader English-speaking world.
What value does the US-Canadian Desk bring?
The US-Canadian Desk strengthens Garrigues’ ability to provide specialized advice on transactions involving the United States, Spain and Latin America. The team facilitates coordination across jurisdictions, connects clients with specialists from different practice areas and promotes integrated management of international projects with a US or Canadian component.
