For more than 25 years, Carlos has counseled clients in nearly every country in Latin America. He is fluent in Spanish and has deep understanding of the nuances involved in handling business transactions throughout the region. During his career, Carlos has acted as key relationship partner for major multinational clients, including global oil and gas, private equity, and technology companies.
