We have strong experience in civil law, specifically in the field of obligations and contracts (goods, finance, guarantee, transport, agency, preliminary contract, leasing) and a long history representing clients in a wide variety of general commercial disputes. Furthermore, we have a specific department for debt recovery and execution, as we believe it is not sufficient to merely obtain a positive result, but also to let our clients see the effects of the result.
