Testimonials

‘PPU analyses national and international regulations relating to competition and antitrust law and the conditions under which our rights or obligations in such matters can be assured. PPU investigates and solidly structures our protection against any violation of our rights and/or prevent us from incurring situations that expose us to contingencies. It also provides us with timely advice regarding the most convenient strategies to give greater value to our operations. I consider that this is a complex level of services because it is not limited to the academic approach but rather the economic one that allows us to protect the value of our business management, which is also linked to operations with other countries.'
‘Verónica Vergaray is highly professional, demonstrating skills in strategy, communication, empathy, and teamwork. Furthermore, I consider the development of the decision-making processes and management of the problems and conflicts to be very successful and that translates into appropriate legal recommendations for our company.'
