Region
Winston’s deep experience representing companies and investors across Latin America and the Caribbean has made the firm a “go-to” resource for the strategic development of our clients’ businesses and the vigorous protection of their interests in the region. With broad command of a diverse range of issues within the region’s key industry sectors, we advise Fortune 500 companies, government and quasi-governmental entities, financial institutions, private equity and other investors, domestic and international oil and gas exploration and production companies, refiners and shippers, and a range of commercial and infrastructure developers.
Industry
Insurance plays an essential role in risk mitigation for financial services companies. As risks evolve, questions often arise concerning the scope of insurance coverage and the interpretation and application of policy provisions. Winston’s insurance lawyers provide companies with best-in-class advice, corporate and transactional counsel, and, if need be, litigation defense in high-stakes coverage disputes and class actions. We have achieved excellent outcomes for our clients in matters involving a wide variety of insurance policies and claims, including cybersecurity, travel, long-term care, and annuities, among others. Moreover, we have experience in emerging issues and industries, such as blockchain technology and artificial intelligence, both of which present insurers with a unique and complicated set of risks and opportunities.
Industry
Winston is well regarded for deep and broad experience advising clients in the development, construction, financing and refinancing, acquisition, and operation of major infrastructure assets, including several award-winning deals and public-private-partnership (PPPs or P3s) projects in North America, Latin America, and Europe. Recognized for our ability to “take complex issues and boil them down to pragmatic solutions” (Chambers USA 2023), our team represents a diverse mix of participants and stakeholders in a broad range of investments and non-recourse/limited recourse financings, and we have experience working on many of the most complex projects, within aggressive time frames, while employing inventive solutions. Likewise, our lawyers help to identify and quantify roadblocks and risks at an early stage, so that we can help our clients—which include developers and sponsors, a full range of lenders and investors, project owners and operators, governments and their agencies, and other project counterparties—evaluate and, to the extent possible, mitigate or eliminate risk.

Law Glossary
Social media law is a developing area of the law that includes both criminal and civil aspects. Generally, it covers legal issues related to user-generated content and the online sites that host or transmit it. Some of the special legal concerns raised by social media include privacy, including the rights of both social media users and third parties (for example, when photos are posted and used online without the permission of the people depicted); defamation; advertising law; and intellectual property (IP) law.
