Responsible partner:

Our natural resources practice brings a deep understanding of industry-wide trends that enables us to provide strategic yet practical legal advice to a broad spectrum of clients. AMLV's natural resources lawyers assist project developers, major corporations and lending institutions with the development of new project, project finance transactions, permitting and compliance, and litigation, among others, covering a wide range of environmental and energy laws. At AMLV, we advise our clients on all stages of a project, from obtaining the relevant sectoral and environmental permits, authorizations, and titles, to the drafting and negotiation of the necessary contracts for its execution (master agreements, services agreements, drilling agreements, ancillary drilling agreements, sale and purchase agreements, power purchase agreements, easements, etc.). We also provide continuing advisory and regulatory services to anticipate possible contingencies as well as ensure compliance.

Our team has developed a strong practical and technical background and has gained valuable corporate and governmental experience after working for mining companies, governmental entities, different ministries, and environmental agencies. We have represented our clients before specialized courts and tribunals, both in Chile and internationally. Our members have also undergone critical negotiations with local and indigenous communities in major-scale projects.
