Alessandri

What Alessandri does

Alessandri, formally Alessandri y Compañía Ltda., is one of Chile's oldest continuously operating law firms, founded in 1893 and headquartered in the Las Condes district of Santiago. It operates as a full-service practice organized across 19 areas including corporate, mergers and acquisitions, capital markets, banking and finance, antitrust, intellectual property, tax, labor, litigation and regulatory matters, serving both Chilean corporates and international clients with inbound and outbound mandates in Chile.

The firm generates revenue through traditional professional services billing — primarily hourly fees, success-based M&A and capital markets mandates, and retainer work — drawing on a roster of senior partners that includes Arturo Alessandri C., Felipe Cousiño, Raúl Montero, Santiago Ortúzar, Rodrigo Velasco A., Fernando Jamarne, Macarena Gatica and Franco Gorziglia, supplemented by recent promotions (José Antonio Cuadra, Patricio Rámila in 2023) and lateral hires (Joaquín Solar in 2026). Its client base spans global financial sponsors and banks (KKR, TPG, Oaktree, Goldman Sachs, Moody's, Euler Hermes), multinational corporates (Bayer-Monsanto, Michael Kors, Domino's Pizza) and Chilean anchors such as Agrosuper.

Alessandri sustains its market position through consistent recognition in international legal directories (Chambers, Legal 500, Latin Lawyer 250, Who's Who Legal, IP Stars) and recent industry awards including Managing IP Copyright Firm of the Year 2026. Its go-to-market is anchored by institutional relationships and reputation rather than technology, and its growth has been measured and partner-led rather than acquisitive.
