Bruchou elects new board

The partners of Argentinian law firm Bruchou, Fernández Madero & Lombardi have elected the firm’s new board for the 2020-22 term, and which includes new chairman Hugo Bruzone, Liban Kusa as managing partner, and Carlos Lombardi, Mariano Luchetti and José María Bazán.

“This generational renewal follows the strategic vision of creating a firm with a sense of perpetuity, one that transcends the founding partners and, in general, the individuals,” the outgoing chairman and founding partner of the firm, Enrique Bruchou, said.

“Since our foundation 30 years ago we have succeeded in positioning ourselves as one of the region’s leading law firms with a focus on the collaborative spirit and a culture of permanent innovation. The new executive committee will have my full support in this new stage.”

“Having been chosen as chairman by my fellow partners is a huge responsibility; even more when succeeding someone such as Enrique,” new chairman Hugo Bruzone (pictured) said.

“The goal of the new executive committee is to continue attracting and retaining the best talent and in that way provide a distinctive and excellent service.”

Carlos Lombardi said, “I am convinced that Liban has the right personal and professional skills to act as managing partner”.

Lombardi also praised the addition of Mariano and José to the executive committee, two partners who joined Bruchou before graduating and have developed their whole career at the firm.

“It is an honour to have been chosen by my partners to occupy this position,” Liban Kusa said. “Having Carlos stay on as a member of the Committee will be of great support, given his 12 years of experience as our managing partner.”
