Mexico and Latin America
Cross-border transactions between companies in the U.S. and Latin America require knowledge of the applicable legal system, trade policies and culture. The Latin America team at Barnes & Thornburg counsels clients in doing business in, and limiting risk and exposure throughout, the U.S., Mexico and Latin America to allow for a smooth transition across their international operations.
Our LatAm team is comprised of multicultural attorneys, including one of a handful of attorneys in the Midwest admitted to practice both in the U.S. and Mexico. We emphasize understanding our clients’ and their counterparts’ culture and customs, and are aware that having a bilingual team is important, but is no longer the only standard by which effective client service is measured.
