Nazly represents sovereigns, high-net-worth individuals, political leaders, and corporations in high-stakes multijurisdictional disputes, investigations, and white collar criminal defense. A dual-qualified attorney admitted in the United States and Colombia, she draws on both common law and civil law systems and works closely with clients to craft offensive and defensive strategies in complex cross-border matters.
Nazly’s practice encompasses the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards and foreign judgments, international arbitration and related annulment proceedings, asset tracing and recovery, and discovery under Section 1782 in aid of foreign proceedings. She also represents clients in white collar criminal defense matters and investigations by U.S. and foreign authorities involving allegations of fraud, bribery, and money laundering, along with the asset forfeiture, sanctions, and extradition proceedings that frequently accompany them. She works closely with investigators and local counsel across Latin America and Europe.
Before joining the firm, Nazly practiced in Colombia, where she advised international clients on disputes and major transactions in the energy, mining, and technology sectors. She also served as counsel at the Arbitration and Conciliation Center of the Bogotá Chamber of Commerce, acting as tribunal secretary in more than 20 international arbitrations. She began her career as a legal extern at the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) at the World Bank.
