León Cosgrove Jiménez, LLP is led by a partnership that has deep cultural connections to Latin America. This was enhanced further by the return of Diego Perez Ara, a Venezuelan and US trained lawyer, as head of the Latin America practice in June 2022. The firm is noted for cross-border litigation and arbitration, including banking and energy disputes; white-collar defence and government/internal investigations are also growth areas. Derek León is another senior figure in the firm who has a regular pipeline of Latin America-related engagements. Marcos Daniel Jiménez, the former US attorney for South Florida, joined the firm in October 2022.
