Arias

The labour team at Arias harnesses the bench strength of seven offices in six countries across Central America, to advise financial institutions, regional corporates and major multinationals (including 3M and Mondelez) on day-to-day operations, and in high-stakes litigation. With an active client base spanning industries ranging from consumer goods, IT and healthcare, chemicals, hospitality and food and beverages, the firm’s extensive offering extends to HR management, labour and human rights, business changes and corporate restructuring, in-house training, internal investigations and alternative dispute resolution. The practice is headed by Carolina Soto, who specialises in conciliation processes and draws on experience of appearing before the Supreme Court of Justice. Other key figures include senior counsel and seasoned litigator Luis Diego Obando and associate Paola Rojas.
