Sophia Muñoz Sabogal
@sophiamuozsabogal
Lawyer focused on corporate law, investment arbitration, and compliance-driven contract work.
What I'm looking for
I’m a law professional with my LL.B. in progress, building hands-on experience across corporate law, investment arbitration, regulatory compliance, and contract management. I focus on precision and traceability—turning legal research into clear reports, claims, and compliance-ready documentation.
In my Compliance Research Assistant role, I drafted legal reports for consulting engagements and analyzed international standards on corporate conduct and due diligence in the energy and mining sector. I also documented and filed legal communications with clear traceability and compliance criteria, ensuring outputs were timely and audit-friendly.
Through my experience as a Legal Assistant and Legal Intern, I supported corporate insolvency work by drafting reports and analyzing case files under Law 1116 of 2006, including strict regulatory compliance and deadline control. I also contributed to investment arbitration and international economic law, drafting claims and responses for proceedings under ICSID rules, and researching legal tech and smart contracts in international commercial contexts.
I bring a strong academic and practice-oriented approach, including research and article drafting in international human rights law and business & human rights frameworks. I’m committed to delivering compliance-driven results in global corporate settings, with strong analytical thinking, written communication, and coordinated work with international teams.
