Firm Overview:
Caro & Asociados is a boutique law firm with high specialisation in White Collar Crime. The firm is best known for its high rate of success in the defense of companies and their administrators in preliminary criminal investigation proceedings and trials before criminal courts. As a matter of fact, none of the firm's clients has ever been found guilty, let alone convicted, despite the high complexity of the subject matters involved or the great public media coverage of many of such cases.

The firm's excellence in proceedings, its devoted focus on compliance, engagement to good entrepreneurial practice and sight on innovation is the reason the firm was granted the ISO 37001 certification, which made it the only law firm to be awarded the BASC Peru certification within its anti-bribery program. Car & Asociados has kept the certification in force, improving its system in the prevention of private corruption and internal policies against labor.

Main Areas of Practice:

LITIGATION DEPARTMENT
It includes the defense of defendants or victims in criminal proceedings before the Congress of the Republic, the Office of the Comptroller General of the Republic, the Police, the Public Ministry and the Judicial Power, in all its instances. The defense extends to cases of loss of ownership and extradition processes. It is also litigated in habeas corpus and amparo proceedings related to criminal matters, from its inception to the Constitutional Court and the Inter-American Human Rights System. It also intervenes in sanctioning processes followed by public entities, especially enforcing due process and the constitutional limits of the sanctioning power of the public administration. Assistance is provided to different foreign corporations and firms in criminal cases brought before their jurisdictions and related to events or processes initiated in Peru.

CONSULTORY AND COMPLIANCE DEPARTMENT
Experience in advising managers and directors in the formation of business decisions that may have a criminal consequence, so that criminal risk can be avoided or reduced. In addition, services are offered to identify and assess the criminal risks of a specific business activity, generated by third parties (suppliers, clients) or the employees or collaborators themselves. Also in the development of compliance programs, manuals and codes of conduct for the avoidance or minimisation of these criminal risks below the threshold of legally tolerable. The firm has a consolidated practice in evaluating the operation of these programs and advising Compliance Officers and Auditors in the performance of their duties.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND LITIGATION DEPARTMENT
Caro & Asociados offers advice and support in the different phases of negotiation prior to a legal action, as well as once it has been instituted, thoroughly analysing all aspects of each case that is entrusted.
