Client satisfaction
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘It compares very favourably with the compliance practices of other firms, particularly in the area of financial intermediaries. The firm remains at the forefront of regulatory changes and the practices of financial authorities, which are useful to understand in detail for better decision-making.'
'It is a firm with which it is easy to collaborate and has a gender-balanced team. The firm's detailed knowledge of the regulations and the authority's criteria gives it a substantial advantage over other firms that lack such expertise.'
‘Their technical expertise, their creativity in finding appropriate solutions, and their constant desire to find ways to achieve the client's objectives (instead of simply saying something isn't possible). The partners we work with regularly, who give the firm this advantage, are Narciso Campos and Eduardo Flores.'
