Norton Rose Fulbright's commitment to Latin America's projects and energy sector is evident in its large Sao Paulo and Mexico City-based teams, coupled with Latin America-focused groups in New York, Washington DC, Houston and other international offices. With numerous native Portuguese and Spanish speakers it consistently advises on large-scale and headline projects and transactions in multiple Latin American jurisdictions, including Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Brazil, México, Peru, Ecuador, Panama and elsewhere. The team routinely acts for a variety of banks, agency lenders and project sponsors. It has a notable record in power and renewables, including wind and solar, although the wide-ranging practice also covers oil and gas, LNG, digital infrastructure, urban infrastructure, housing programmes and green technology financings. New York partner Raquel Bierzwinsky is a native Spanish speaker, admitted to practice in Mexico and New York, and has an established record in energy, infrastructure and mining project financings in Mexico, Chile and across the region; she is also one of the firm's co-relationship partners with IDB Invest. Washington DC’s Sarah Devine and Jeremy Hushon are key figures in representing DFIs and agency lenders in energy and infrastructure financings across Latin America. Longstanding Sao Paulo partner Daniel Spencer continues to advise on a range of energy and infrastructure project financings in multiple jurisdictions. Sao Paulo counsel José Cobeña is another key member of the team.
