NEW YORK - Oct. 5, 2020 - At PAG Law, our goal is not to grow but to constantly improve. With excellence in mind, PAG is pleased to announce that Peter Eccles has joined the firm as the managing partner of PAG's New York office.
Peter comes to PAG Law with over twenty years of corporate law experience at three of the largest international law firms, as well as serving as the regional general counsel for Latin America of a global credit rating agency.
"We are pleased to welcome a super-star like Peter. Peter's practice is a perfect complement to PAG's practice as his focus is primarily cross-border, focusing on Latin America and particularly, Brazil, where he lived as a youth," noted Liz Flores, a founding partner of PAG.
Juan Pablo Cappello, another partner at PAG, added, "I had the pleasure of working with Peter at the start of my career. Like his clients I have always admired Peter's steady hand, practical advice and devotion to the creative problem solving. We are excited to partner with Peter to build PAG Law's New York office."
Peter commented, "PAG Law has a unique platform that focuses on doing fewer things better. My clients will appreciate the personalized and high-quality legal advice that PAG offers. PAG Law has several attorneys who like me have lived and worked in Brazil. I look forward to growing PAG Law's team and capabilities in New York."

PAG partner Zac Soto noted, "At PAG Law we work with a limited number of clients that we can properly serve. We stick to limited areas of focus, such as venture capital, in which we can be highly efficient and generate value for our clients. Great to see our focus and dedication recognized by such a prestigious publication as The Best Lawyers in America©."
