Infrastructure & Projects

Infrastructure projects encompass a variety of energy, waste, and health-related transactions in both the public and private sphere. Changes in the organization of companies, the necessary stimulus to the economy as well as the evolution of digitalization are driving a number of additional public and private investments in many countries.

These projects are usually complex and require the participation of specialized teams involving different areas of law. Working closely with promoters and financiers in the design, construction, financing, operation and maintenance of the infrastructure of different projects is of vital importance for the success of each project.

Whatever your opportunities or challenges may be, our dedicated team understands your business needs and works to strategically define tailored solutions.

We can help you shape your strategy, manage risks and make the most of business opportunities in these areas:

  • Agreements for works under contract and concession contracts
  • EPC Agreements
  • Public-Private Partnerships (PPP)
  • Legal assistance and representation in contractual negotiations
  • Tender processes and award of contracts
  • Legal representation in the revision of proceedings of award of contracts
  • Consortium agreements

We have an in-depth knowledge of how the law applies in practice across different markets and with cross-disciplinary teams, we work to provide advice close to our clients’ needs.
