Frequently asked questions
Before your first consultation
Can you review a property's background before I buy it?
Yes. Our firm carries out title studies and reviews real estate purchase agreements. It also advises on leases and the regularization of small real estate holdings.
What inheritance-related matters does our firm handle?
We process estate succession proceedings with and without a will, as well as matters of partition, allotment and fulfillment of inheritance bequests. The scope of the engagement is defined when reviewing the background.
Do you handle disputes over contracts or damages?
We advise on the drafting, review and negotiation of contracts, and on damages claims for contractual and non-contractual liability, including civil liability for medical malpractice.
Is civil advice also aimed at companies?
Yes. We work with individuals and companies that require contractual or asset advice, or representation in disputes. When the matter calls for it, we coordinate the review with the Commercial and Tax practice areas.
What information and documents are needed to get started?
In the initial form, a general description and the relevant dates are enough. During the review, the team may request contracts, property titles or details of the inheritance, depending on the matter. Do not send confidential or sensitive documents or information in your first contact.
Can a negotiation be assessed before starting a lawsuit?
Yes. The assessment may include a negotiation route and, where appropriate, court representation. We review the background and the objectives of the engagement to propose a course of action, without guaranteeing an agreement or an outcome.
How long can my matter take and what dates should I report?
We do not offer a single timeframe for all matters. An estimate requires reviewing the type of procedure, its background and the necessary steps. If you have a notification, hearing or deadline, state the date in your inquiry so the team can take it into account when assessing the applicable timeframes.
How are the service and fees determined?
First we receive your inquiry and, where appropriate, we study the background. Then we present a proposal of services and fees. The engagement begins once that proposal is accepted.
