Albagli Zaliasnik

What Albagli Zaliasnik does

Albagli Zaliasnik (branded as 'az') is a privately held Chilean full-service law firm founded in 1991 in Santiago by Rodrigo Albagli and Álvaro Rosenblut, operating for approximately 35 years. The firm delivers professional legal services — including advisory, transactional, regulatory, compliance, litigation, and intellectual property work — to enterprise and mid-market corporations, energy/mining/infrastructure companies, and startups across the innovation ecosystem. Service delivery is organized under both core practice areas (Corporate and Business, Litigation, Labor, Tax, Public Law, IP) and specialized branded sub-lines: az Compliance, az Venture, az Tech (AI and new technologies), az Miami (US cross-border practice), az Recursos Naturales y Proyectos (energy and infrastructure), Gerencia Legal (embedded in-house legal management), and Gerencia Legal Externa (outsourced legal management).

Revenue is generated through engagement-based professional service fees negotiated with clients; there is no subscription or recurring pricing model disclosed, and revenue is not publicly reported. Geographic reach is anchored in a Santiago headquarters (El Golf 150, Las Condes) and a Miami office established approximately 2021, supported by an international alliance network spanning 60+ countries. The firm pursues client acquisition through partner-led direct engagement, thought leadership (Diario Financiero, Forbes Chile, La Tercera, LexLatin), podcast programming (Podcazt), email newsletters, and active social media presence. The firm holds no proprietary technology platform; its AI/technology exposure is limited to its az Tech advisory practice and the appointment of a dedicated AI/New Technologies Director.
