We have been recognized by clients as a law firm that provides excellence in services rendered to them, given our performance and strategies in cases of great complexity and impact, either due to the values involved or the subject matter of the lawsuits. In addition to conducting lawsuits, the department encourages the adoption of preventive actions (to avoid, when possible, that the issues be taken to courts) and provides consultations and legal opinions to help our clients making important decisions. We provide services to clients in the areas of construction, real estate, finance, trade, press, port services, direct sales, foreign awards enforcement procedures, etc. Regarding construction specifically, Wongtschowski Kleiman provides its services considering all the steps and the complexity involved in a big project: we help our clients with the elaboration and review of the contracts; follow up the compliance of the contract during the construction; guarantee the client is provided with documents proving the fulfilment of its obligations; help them negotiate the delivery of the work and to be discharged, whenever necessary; and take care of the lawsuit or arbitration when negotiation is not possible.
