Cochrane O’Higgins Lawyers is a boutique Sydney commercial law firm built on a simple idea: legal strength and human respect should go together. Founded by Claudio Venegas after 22+ years handling complex, high-stakes matters, we practise law differently—steadfast in principle, strategically rigorous, and genuinely human.
We advise and act in Insolvency & Restructuring, Litigation & Dispute Resolution, and Commercial Law, including property and commercial/retail leasing. Our focus is clear strategy, practical solutions, and outcomes that protect dignity, empower stakeholders, and create lasting value.
For College of Law students in Sydney, we represent what modern legal practice can be: high-calibre work without ego, excellence with empathy, and advocacy that stays loyal to the client’s goals.
