Miami-based Astigarraga and Houston-based Rivero also made Latinvex’s list of the top 20 lawyers for arbitration and litigation in Latin America.
In Latinvex testimonials, Astigarraga is praised for his “global perspective” and ability “to resolve even the most complex cases.”
Rivero is global co-chair of the firm’s Latin America Business Team and former co-practice leader of its International Arbitration Group. Latinvex mentions his arbitration and corporate work in the enforcement of a multimillion-dollar arbitral award under the Panama Convention.
Both partners were also included in Latinvex’s 2020 listing.
Clients rate Reed Smith as one of the top international law firms doing business in Latin America. The firm’s continued inclusion in the Latinvex rankings is testament to its extensive knowledge of the cultures of individual countries in Latin America, the regional arbitration institutions and their rules.
Latinvex selects the 100 leading lawyers from international law firms, divided across a number of key practice areas. The criteria is based on Latinvex’s research and includes recent track record, prominence in the market and also considers other authoritative third party rankings, such as Chambers and Partners and Legal 500.
