Corporate Criminal Law & Compliance
Our Corporate Criminal Law and Compliance practice, located in our offices in Guatemala and Costa Rica, focuses on criminal defense and strategic legal risk management for companies, executives, public officials in Costa Rica, and investors involved in complex criminal investigations or proceedings. Our work combines rigorous technical analysis with a deep understanding of the business, political, institutional, and reputational environments in which our clients operate.
We assist both individuals and organizations in making critical decisions regarding potential criminal contingencies, whether by providing representation in court and before the prosecutor's office, acting as defense attorneys or representing victims and complainants, as well as supporting internal investigation and enforcement processes.
We also prepare specialized legal opinions for internal legal teams or corporate counsel, and we design preventative strategies to anticipate and mitigate criminal risks in key sectors such as banking, telecommunications, technology, infrastructure, consumer goods, and logistics, among others.
Our team has extensive experience in cases involving economic crime, crimes against public officials in Costa Rica, and customs, tax, financial, environmental, cyber, and other high-impact offenses.
We have also committed to the pro bono representation of social leaders and vulnerable communities in their capacity as victims. This practice responds to an increasingly complex reality, in which the criminal exposure of companies and professionals demands comprehensive, agile, and long-term-oriented legal counsel.
