Allende & Brea

The formerly market leading practice at Allende & Brea has undergone a remarkably rapid liquidation with the February 2023 departure of associate Sebastian Bonina (to Accenture Argentina), superceded by the wholesale August 2023 departure of practice head Martín Argañaraz, key associate María Agustina Diaz (plus a junior associate and a paralegal) to establish new office, DAC Beachcroft Argentina. Following the earlier (April 2022) departure of Laura Santanatoglia, who moved in house at Zurich Santander Seguros America, this leaves Santiago Sturla - who practices insurance and reinsurance as part of a broader practice that takes in corporate, contractual and company law - heading the department as the firm seeks to rebuild its capabilities; he is supported by intermediate associate Florencia L Marino.
