Dispute Resolution

If you have a problem that requires legal action, our team can assist you in analyzing risk, managing disputes and seeking constructive solutions in your best interest. CMS sector-focused lawyers are not just litigators or arbitration specialists, but business-minded problem solvers.

If you want your dispute to stay out of court or arbitration, we can tactically guide you. When proposing and presenting the best strategies, either to reach a preliminary agreement or for litigation itself, we immerse ourselves in all the facts of the conflict at hand, the financial circumstances enveloping the case, as well as the effects and scope that it may have for you considering a resolution by means of a sentence.

Thus, our lawyers provide creative solutions without missing a single opportunity to demonstrate our absolute and full commitment to the case throughout its various stages.

Without exception, we place the best interests of our clients before the benefit or prestige of our firm.
