Law firm Harneys has opened an office in Montevideo, Uruguay.
Led by Marco Martins, a partner and head of the firm’s Latin America practice, the Montevideo office will improve the firm’s ability to service clients throughout Latin America.
Martins says: “Our ultimate goal is to be able to provide the best service possible to clients in the region, in local language and with a full appreciation for the economic, cultural and dynamic needs of the region, and a Harneys office in Latin America is another important step in our long term objective.”
Brazilian born Martins, who has been head of Harneys’ Latin America practice since 2007, recently relocated from the BVI to the Cayman Islands and will be splitting his time between Cayman and Uruguay.
He is joined in Uruguay by associate HoracioWoycik, business development associate Amalia Torres and paralegal Natalia ÁlvarezSilvera.
The Montevideo office opening comes less than 12 months after Harneys opened its Cyprus office and during a year when the firm has added 14 new associates across a range of practice areas and offices.
