More informationMore information

Bomchil’s oil-and-gas practice has gone from strength-to-strength following its 2020 tie-up with leading oil-and-gas and energy boutique Alliani & Bruzzon. The practice has wide-ranging industry capabilities and is regularly sought out for its deep expertise in the areas of exploration, production, transportation and refining. The team also covers dispute resolution, regulatory issues and outbound and inbound oil-and-gas transactional matters. The practice is fronted by industry rainmaker Pablo Alliani, a regulatory, oil-and-gas and M&A practitioner of vast experience. Veteran oil-and-gas all-rounder Fernando Brunelli is another big name in the sector, with further senior level support coming from administrative law, disputes and energy regulation partner Cristian Galansky. The practice also draws extensively on the firm’s full-service capabilities, with additional assistance coming from banking and finance partner Fermín Caride and economic regulation and disputes specialist María Inés Corrá. A phalanx of associates dedicated to oil-and-gas lead the second line, with Brenda Saluzzi, Matías Debarbieri and Andrea Lovfall among the key names.
