Leveraging its international network of offices, DLA Piper Perú is well placed to advise domestic and global clients on due diligence, the structuring and negotiation of M&A transactions, and post-merger integration. Operating in the telecoms, real estate, and oil and gas sectors, among others, the firm also handles private equity, corporate governance and regulatory work. The team is led by Luis Vargas, who advises on M&A deals in the energy and infrastructure sectors; Fernando Lanfranco, whose scope of work covers cross-border investment processes and family business-related M&A deals; and Janilú Badiola, who advises on transactions in highly regulated industries. At the associate level, Leslie Chávez assists clients with contractual structures for the acquisition and sale of companies, and Ricardo Chirinos handles the preparation of civil contracts and corporate documents.
