The law firm operates in two fronts:
Preventive: making sure that all norms and laws are followed during the process of entry of the goods in the destination country. Also ensuring that Brazilian legislation is complied with, to avoid fines and losses during the importation process.
Resolutive: sometimes, mistakes happen and legal problems can hinder the progress of an export or import process. It is in this context that the lawyer also acts, aiming to resolve the issue and guarantee that there are no losses for the company or for the recipient.
