"Rock solid in terms of quality and performance," is how one competitor describes Claro y Cia, "A huge firm, the best corporate law firm," he adds.
Market feedback describes the firm's impressive abilities in the banking and finance sector, quality work and an eye for detail. Attorneys at the firm are characterised as "very thorough" by one peer. "They add value to the transaction," he says. "It's fair to say they address all kinds of risk. They will flesh out risk that might not come out with a lack of further analysis."
The firm advised Chile's flag carrier LAN in its merger with TAM, Brazil's largest airline. The merger will create a new airline company, LATAM. The proposed merger follows other airline consolidation in Latin America and would staff nearly 40,000 employees, serve more than 45 million customers, and provide destinations in 23 different countries.
Both Cristóbal Eyzaguirre and José María Eyzaguirre are well-respected figures: "When you think of M&A [at Claro], you think of both of them," says one partner. José María's name also brought forth favourable comments. "I have the best opinion of him and I have a really good relationship with him," says one attorney, while a client adds: "The service they have provided has been outstanding. The commitment from the partner I have been working with, José María Eyzaguirre, has been amazing. He structured the Chilean part of the deal, which was the most complicated. He's an extremely good negotiator."
