Working closely with the firm’s tax, litigation, administrative, and criminal law practices, Marval O’Farrell Mairal is relied upon by international companies and government authorities for its broad expertise across international trade and customs matters, including WTO-related tax issues, customs valuation disputes, and cases involving corruption and smuggling. Its broad service offering also covers anti-dumping investigations, market access guidance, sanctions affecting importers and exporters, foreign exchange controls and litigation. The ‘very clever and pragmatic’ Pablo Gayol, noted for his strong track record in large anti-dumping investigations, leads the practice alongside customs expert Juan Pablo Rothschild. Patricia López Aufranc, an international trade veteran with significant experience in anti-dumping cases, and Horacio García Prieto, a reference for customs claims and customs law in general, are other noteworthy practitioners. Customs law specialist Juan Martín Sanz and María Julia Schmit, who excels in litigation and customs regulations, stand out at the associate level.
