Diversity

Our Hallmark

Our leitmotif is to guarantee utmost commitment in the provision of quality assistance to our clients. Our comprehensive knowledge of their business fields and markets enable us to provide unparalleled advice.

MBC Abogados renders specialized counseling focused on the needs of each client, integrating legal knowledge with our partners’ experience in financial, commercial, real estate and tax law.

We rely heavily upon a diversified team of highly experienced attorneys who offer strategic support and legal assistance with a commercial focus on a wide array of industries, such as real estate, tax, corporate, M&A, investment funds, financing and venture capital among others, in Chile and worldwide.

With more than 11 years of experience, at MBC Abogados we understand the context in which our clients operate, thereby reaching a deep understanding of their challenges in order to deliver a value proposition based on trust and excellence.

We strive to build dynamic and diverse teams that cater to our clients’ multiple needs in a timely manner. To this purpose, we promote equal opportunities for all our lawyers, with the aim of further developing their potential.

Commitment

Since our incorporation in 2010, at MBC Abogados we have always advocated diversity as being central to an ever healthier work environment. This work ethic has fostered empathy and resilience, therefore delivering a better service to our clients. Our commitment is to move towards higher standards of diversity, equity and inclusion. In short, our firm is actively engaged in enhancing the relevance of diversity at work.

Strategy

We have been working diligently on the creation and implementation of action plans with a view to better understanding and guiding our clients and their business fields, incorporating all the benefits of diversity within the work teams.

We review and adapt our D&I priorities and the needs of our team on a yearly basis to ensure that our initiatives improve over time and in light of potentially changing legal and social environments.

Our recruitment methods, incentives, celebration of skills and professional development reflect an indefatigable effort towards a gender bias-free workplace.

We are one of the law firms with the highest share of senior and female partners in the country. Specifically, 63% of the professionals that integrate MBC are women. This does not respond to affirmative action per se, but rather to our deep-set conviction: we truly believe that highly diversified work groups are enriched by perspectives and skills that benefit our collaborators, our organization and, above all, our clients.
