In the most recent recognition of its position as a leading project finance advisor in Latin America, Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy was named “International Counsel in Latin America – Project Finance” at the 2018 Chambers Latin America Awards. The awards ceremony and dinner took place on November 30, 2018 at the Loews Hotel in Miami, Florida.
The Chambers Latin America Awards are based on extensive research by the world-renowned legal directory for the 2019 edition of Chambers Latin America: Latin America’s Leading Lawyers for Business. Awards are given to the leading international players across the region, and the recognitions reflect law firms’ pre-eminence in key practice areas in Latin America, as well as notable achievements over the past year including outstanding work, strategic growth, and excellence in client service.
Dan Bartfeld, head of the firm’s Global Project, Energy and Infrastructure Finance Group, said: “We are honored to have received this recognition by Chambers Latin America for the sixth time. Milbank has carved out a reputation as the top international legal advisor on energy and infrastructure-related financings in Latin America, and we plan to strengthen that reputation in the coming years as we continue to develop innovative approaches and deepen our service offerings to meet clients’ changing needs.”
Roland Estevez, a partner in Milbank’s Global Project, Energy and Infrastructure Finance Group, added “It’s a tribute to our clients and the many strategic and ‘first-of-their-kind’ projects they pursue across all sectors and countries in the region.”
One of the first international law firms to establish a dedicated project, energy and infrastructure finance practice, Milbank has received worldwide acclaim for the strength of its global practice and is consistently recognized as a leading law firm in Latin America. In 2018, Milbank was named “Best Infrastructure Law Firm in Latin America” for the third year in a row by LatinFinance and “Latin America Legal Adviser of the Year” by IJGlobal.
