DLA Piper has added Nicolás Orezzoli as a partner in its tax practice in Chile, strengthening the firm’s ability to advise clients on complex international tax matters across the region. Orezzoli focuses on designing and implementing tax-efficient structures for cross-border transactions. His work spans the full transaction cycle, and he regularly advises strategic and financial investors on both buy-side and sell-side processes.
He also counsels multinational groups, private equity funds, family offices, and local companies on corporate restructurings, capital markets and financing transactions, cash repatriation strategies, and disputes with the Chilean Internal Revenue Service.
At DLA Piper, Orezzoli will collaborate with colleagues across the firm’s corporate, finance, projects, emerging growth, and disputes teams to support multinational companies, foreign investors, and Chilean business groups on complex cross-border mandates.
The firm said the addition reflects continued demand for international tax expertise as cross-border dealmaking across the Americas grows more complex. Chile remains an important destination for regional and international investment, driving demand for integrated legal and tax advice.
DLA Piper’s Latin America platform includes more than 400 lawyers working across Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Peru, and Puerto Rico, alongside US-based cross-border attorneys. The firm operates more than 90 offices in over 40 countries globally.
