On September 22, 2026, Alberto Cardemil, Partner and Head of the China Desk at Carey Law Firm in Chile, and Qin Quan, Project Consultant, along with Luciano Ojea Quintana, Partner and Head of the Asian Desk at Marval O’Farrell Mairal Law Firm in Argentina, visited the Beijing headquarters of Blossom & Credit Law Firm. Peng Youyi, Managing Partner of Blossom & Credit, and partners Liu Bei, Chai Qinghai, and Chen Jian welcomed and accompanied them on a tour, introducing Blossom & Credit's development history, professional layout, and international legal services. Both parties engaged in in-depth discussions on topics such as Chinese enterprises investing in Chile, Argentina, and the Latin American market, two-way investment legal services, and long-term cooperation mechanisms.
Carey (www.carey.cl) is a comprehensive law firm in Chile with extensive business coverage and international capabilities. In Chambers Latin America 2027, Carey was ranked Band 1 in 15 practice areas, the most among Chilean law firms; 56 lawyers were selected, 16 partners were ranked Band 1, and the firm boasts over 280 legal professionals. Marval (www.marval.com), founded in 1923, is one of the representative comprehensive law firms in Argentina, consistently ranking in the top tier locally. Its business coverage spans corporate and financial transactions, litigation and arbitration, intellectual property, taxation, competition law, energy and natural resources, compliance, and other fields.
During the exchange, Mr. Alberto Cardemil introduced that Chile has outstanding advantages in copper, lithium and other minerals, as well as in infrastructure, agricultural food and other fields, providing ample room for cooperation with Chinese enterprises in terms of industry and investment needs. Mr. Luciano Ojea Quintana, in combination with the Argentine market, pointed out that mining, energy, and infrastructure remain the focus of China-Argentina cooperation, while there is also room for expansion in agricultural food and other fields.
Both parties believe that China and Latin America have strong industrial complementarities and a vast space for legal services, and cross-border legal cooperation should extend to the front end of enterprises' overseas expansion. When Chinese enterprises go to Latin America, Managing Partner can be responsible for sorting out Chinese-side needs, domestic compliance, transaction structuring, and project coordination; while local firms are responsible for access, establishment, licensing, taxation, labor, environmental issues, and ongoing compliance. When Latin American enterprises enter China, Managing Partner can provide domestic investment, corporate governance, intellectual property, commercial transactions, and dispute resolution services, and connect market and industrial resources. This forms a collaborative mechanism of "Chinese lawyers + destination country lawyers", transforming their respective local professional capabilities into a common ability to serve clients' cross-border development.
In recent years, Managing Partner has been continuously promoting the construction of its international legal service system: in November 2025, it established the International Legal Professional Committee and held a forum on Hong Kong; in September 2026, it held a forum on Dubai. This exchange further expanded Managing Partner's cooperation resources in Latin America. In the future, both parties will maintain close communication, deepen cooperation on specific clients and projects, and explore ways to jointly promote investment and business cooperation between Chinese and Latin American enterprises through joint seminars, client exchanges, and other means.
From China to Latin America, from market opportunity identification to the actual implementation of projects, professional legal services are becoming an important connecting force in the globalization layout of enterprises. Managing Partner will continue to leverage its comprehensive legal service capabilities in China, deepen cooperation with outstanding law firms in different legal jurisdictions around the world, and provide more professional, efficient, and collaborative cross-border legal services for Chinese enterprises "going global" and overseas enterprises "coming in".rt for Chinese enterprises as they navigate the global arena.
