As anti-corruption and corporate compliance rises to the top of the agenda of companies and governments in Latin America, Affinitas is excited to announce the launch of a new white-collar crime & compliance practice in Peru.
Our member firm in Lima, Miranda & Amado, recently announced the hiring of two specialists in corporate and business criminal investigations and litigation, José Luis Velarde and Rafael Díaz. The new practice group will focus on business and economic criminal law, both through preventive legal counseling, as well as litigation and compliance matters.
Throughout the region, demand for compliance services has increased sharply, and Affinitas is uniquely positioned to offer highly specialized teams in Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and now with an even stronger, dedicated practice in Peru.
Our team of compliance specialists offers strategic legal advice on sensitive matters related to corporate criminal liability and regulatory compliance. We work to protect our clients’ interests on a broad range of topics including corporate integrity, anti-bribery and anti-corruption, industrial accidents and spills, toxic torts and environmental damage, oil and gas crimes, personal data protection, among others.
