The 2026 edition will take place at Bella Center Copenhagen and feature more than 200 sessions organized across IBA committees, alongside professional events and opportunities for law firms and practitioners to connect.
The breadth of the conference provides a forum for discussions across corporate law, taxation, mergers and acquisitions, arbitration, regulatory matters and other areas relevant to international legal practice.
LAC Legal at IBA Copenhagen 2026
LAC Legal’s participation in IBA Copenhagen 2026 will give Diego Lacayo and Rodrigo Vieto the opportunity to meet directly with law firms and legal professionals from different markets.
Throughout the week, the team will hold meetings focused on law firm relationships, cross-border collaboration and international legal matters involving Panama.
These relationships are particularly important when a transaction, investment, corporate structure or dispute requires coordinated legal advice across multiple jurisdictions.
Panama Legal Counsel for International Clients and Law Firms
As a Panama law firm, LAC Legal advises companies, investors and international clients across a range of legal matters.
The firm’s practice covers corporate and commercial law, taxation, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), litigation and arbitration, banking, regulatory matters and private wealth, among other areas.
On corporate matters, LAC Legal advises clients on the formation, organization and operation of Panamanian companies and corporate structures, as well as transactions involving local and international businesses.
The firm also handles dispute resolution matters, including commercial arbitration in Panama, where coordination between counsel in different jurisdictions can be particularly important when contracts, parties or assets span multiple countries.
Why is the IBA Annual Conference Relevant for International Law Firms?
One of the defining aspects of the IBA Annual Conference is its ability to bring together legal professionals from numerous markets in one place.
The conference provides an opportunity for lawyers and law firms to exchange knowledge, develop professional relationships and identify opportunities for cooperation across jurisdictions.
For a Panama law firm, this creates a direct opportunity to connect with international counsel whose clients may require local legal advice in Panama.
At the same time, these relationships expand LAC Legal’s network of foreign counsel when clients require legal assistance outside Panama.
