Chambers Latin America 2022 has awarded Dentons 125 quality rankings across the Latin America region. Together with the Chambers Global and Brazil guides, the leading legal publisher now recognizes Dentons offices across Brazil, Chile, the Caribbean, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Bolivia’s previously announced combination Guevara & Gutierrez.

Dentons achieved a total of 40 firm level and 85 individual lawyer rankings. These include 29 practice rankings in the highest bands (1 and 2) and 33 top lawyer rankings (Bands 1 and 2, Eminent Practitioner, Senior Statespeople). This represents 20% more rankings compared to the 2021 guide.¹

"We are grateful for this recognition and proud that our rankings have continued to increase as we have continued to expand to become the only pan-Latin America and the Caribbean law firm. This enables us to assist clients seeking a breadth of services that few of our global competitors can match,” said Latin America and the Caribbean Chief Executive, Jorge Alers.
