Trench Rossi Watanabe fields a ‘competent and dedicated team’ of ’excellent negotiators’, which is equipped to handle headline M&A with domestic and cross-border implications. Private and publicly listed companies regularly turn to the group for assistance with acquisitions, corporate reorganisations and divestments in a variety of sectors, including agribusiness, education, healthcare, life sciences, insurance, energy and TMT. Relying on a strong international network, the firm possesses foreign desks focused on the European and Asian markets, and a team dedicated to advising Chinese clients on transactions and projects in the energy and infrastructure segments.

The pair co-head the practice with Mauricio Pacheco, who has significant experience in private equity.
