Amy's coverage focuses on legal and financial developments, particularly within the context of Latin America. She frequently covers law firms' activities, international business transactions, and legal sector updates in this region.
Given her focus on law firms and their operations in Latin America, she would likely be interested in pitches related to newsworthy events such as significant mergers or acquisitions involving these firms, expansions into new markets or practice areas, high-profile hires or departures, and notable cases with wide-reaching implications.
