Assuring the ease access and, as possible, prompt response to requests, at Busanelli Advogados Associados, all clients are preferential.
Among the wide range of services offered, we highlight the out-of-court assistance in commercial transactions, national or international, either through analysis and drafting of contracts and opinions in general, or through planning studies and corporate reorganization, tributary and labor planning, as well as litigation, through arbitration or judicial proceedings, through the interests preservation from tributary litigation, labor, civil, commercial and corporate nature.
Still, with a view to a misguided criminal policy on the part of the State, with a great expansion of criminal law, conducts previously regarded as mere administrative infractions, were typified as a crime. Within this context, the Busanelli Advogados Associados also has expertise in the field, particularly the new Criminal offences qualified as economic criminal law. Without prejudice, the expansion mentioned turned out to extend the type of common crimes, to which all are subject to being charged off, which is why the Busanelli Advogados Associados also began to incorporate them in its portfolio of services.
