Our clients refer to the quality of our job and the speed on our replies which has become more and more important for our clients and it is an important factor on the selection of their lawyers. We also like to keep it simple. In Nicaragua there are several real estate issues that foreign clients usually do not understand; therefore, even though we provide large explanations on each topic we also add a simple brief, so it is easier for the clients to comprehend.
Also, the department provides a further approach with the combination of the tax advice along with the real estate department, which has led the firm to also advise on tax structuring involving real estate assets.
The firm has also been lately involved in real estate litigations. Please refer to the Litigation report for further information on another real estate transactions involving litigation.
