Juristic representation and consulting

Labour Law:

Our in various areas specialized lawyers are familiar with the public institutions, their techniques and principles, the problem areas in dealing with the authorities and in particularly the implementation of the relevant provisions in practice.

We advise predominantly national and international companies, but also executives and directors, managers and qualified workers.

Company Law/ Corporate law:

The corporate law is one of the "traditional" activities of the legal advice. In addition to the formation of a companie the following areas are fundamental with regard to the legal elements of an association:

- Tax design of the fiscal year
- Advising of the management bodies,
- Use of commercial mandatory books,
- Timely holding of the statutory and rationalising main and shareholders' meetings and the Board of Directors meetings.

These for the existence of the company decisive measures, as well for small and medium-sized companies, are often not carried out.

Process & Criminal

In traditional terms, the criminal process is mostly associated with the legal profession of a lawyer. Since legal relations often implicate differences of opinion, which lead in a court dispute, the litigation is an essential part of the lawyer's activities.

The goal of our work is always first, to avoid legal conflicts and to dissolve disputes that have already arisen withouth going to court. We are always eager to avoid a judicial procedure that is especially in Paraguay associated with long-standing legal procedures and high costs. It is very important to first examine the factual and legal situation and the prospects of a court to enforce it. Besides that the voluntary jurisdiction, as in family and inheritance matters, is within our advisory spectrum.

Part of our consulting services is not only the care during the litigation, but also the regular reporting to our clients on the status of proceedings. This creates more transparency and allows our clients to relate to our actions.

International law of succession

We advise both the testator on its future financial situation and the various legal alternatives he has to assign his fortune to the descendants or other persons. On the other hand, we support the heirs in the distribution of the estate after the testamentary wishes of the testator or in absence of a testament according to the statutory national and international legislation.

A significant part of the asset succession planning in particular in international tax matters is its design. Therefore, we develop for our clients designs according to the civil ley concepts, that involve national and international tax law in order to minimize the tax burden for all concerned.

It is characterized by its complexity and constantly changing legal bases because of the recurring need for adaptation to new technical and scientific knowledge.
