Cuatrecasas, Gonçalves Pereira - International 

International

A leading firm in the international legal world in all matters concerning Spain and Portugal

The firm offers its services through an extensive network of integrated offices that coordinate their work, providing synergy, expertise and know-how through a single-office principle. In addition to its 16 offices on the Iberian Peninsula, the firm has nine other international offices in Brussels, Casablanca, London, Luanda, Maputo, New York, Paris, Sao Paulo and Shanghai. The firm also has extensive knowledge of some of the most important jurisdictions in the world through its international desks (France, Germanic countries, Latin America and the Middle East).

The firm’s vast transnational experience enables it to advise foreign clients on projects and transactions in these jurisdictions, as well as on international projects. It advises on strategies to establish, incorporate and run companies abroad; buying and selling businesses; collaboration agreements; optimum tax structuring of investments and the differing tax systems; project finance; and international arbitration.

As our international practice is organized in a matrix structure of country-specific groups (partners from the firm’s different practice areas and offices share knowledge and experience of a specific jurisdiction), we offer a value-added service for clients’ strategic crossborder transactions, by collaborating with some of the most prestigious independent law firms in each country.

Our country-specific groups are particularly active in Latin America, where we have a large network of contacts with the best law firms and the most specialized practices. Since the 1990s, we have complemented this by having our lawyers in many of their offices and Latin American lawyers in many of our offices.
