Linklaters, a leading international law firm, has recently made a strategic move to increase its presence in Latin America, a region that continues to intersect with its global services. The firm took a significant step by employing Emilio Minvielle, a well-connected Argentine lawyer from Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton. The move comes on the heels of Cleary’s decision to close its Buenos Aires office in 2022.
Minvielle, who served with Cleary for nearly two decades, has joined Linklaters’ operations in the Washington, D.C. and New York offices, holding a counsel role. The hiring is indicative of the firm’s determined commitment to expand its capabilities and services devoted to the Latin American region.
Moreover, the firm has also ramped up referrals from local law firms, a strategic approach to establishing a broad network and strengthening its position in the region.
