Baker McKenzie S.A.S. is distinguished by its extensive global platform and clients attest that the projects team ‘has access to resources that other law firms can’t manage to incorporate’. The cross-practice group handles a mix of infrastructure and energy-related work, with its recent experience spanning project development, project finance, corporate support and contentious matters. Project finance specialist Alejandro Mesa is a key contact and brings to bear experience in the energy, mining and infrastructure sectors. Also noted are newly promoted (July 2023) partner María Montejo, who advises on public procurement and infrastructure projects; and structured finance specialist Ricardo Trejos.
