Corporate
Corporate law covers issues related to the formation, organization, operation, transformation, and dissolution of companies.
We know from experience that legal guidance is essential for strategic decision-making, risk mitigation, and resolving conflicts that may arise in a business context. Therefore, we support our clients in all stages of the decision-making process they must undertake.
Compliance
The Compliance branch covers the rules and procedures that companies must follow to ensure compliance with laws, regulations, and ethical standards applicable to their activities.
This area of law involves the implementation of internal policies, controls, and monitoring processes to prevent, detect, and correct behaviors that may violate legislation or the company’s internal policies.
The legal advisory associated with this area of law aims to promote an organizational culture of integrity, transparency, and accountability, avoiding legal, reputational, and financial risks for the company.
