Delivering ‘a top service with competitive prices that adapt to the client’s budget’, natural resources and environmental law boutique, Lawgic Abogados, is consistently sought out by companies of all sizes from the energy, agriculture, aquaculture, desalination and mining sectors to advise on water law-related legal strategies, regulatory issues, corporate law and litigation. The firm’s five-member team was recently notably active in relation to desalination and green hydrogen production-related matters; and the group provides ongoing advice to Unifrutti on water law issues. The group is co-led by former Carey senior associate, Sebastian Del Campo, who ’delivers good strategies when facing complex issues’, and whose water law practice covers regulatory matters, administrative and judicial litigation, natural resources-related transactions and the development of investment projects; and Agustín Walker, a former Núñez Muñoz Abogados of counsel, who maintains ‘a very competent and good practice’, and who is experienced in water rights, natural resources and project development work. In the firm’s associate ranks, Francisco Silva - whose career includes working at the litigation unit of Chile’s General Water Agency - is a specialist in water law, administrative sanctioning and judicial proceedings; and Karla Miranda routinely advises on administrative and judicial litigation, regulatory due diligence and project development.
