Among our clients are entities from several regulated sectors (energy, construction, public works, sewage water, etc.) in the process to obtain the necessary authorizations and permits to develop their projects. We have also participated in numerous infrastructure-financing transactions, in all the regulatory aspects of the transactions and construction agreements.
