‘What makes Lexvalor unique is that they work as allies of the business and not as an external adviser. They understand the needs and give their best advice based on this. Additionally, I consider that they have a good work schedule between lawyers, since there are day-to-day issues that are worked on with some people, but you always have immediate access to the partner lawyers.'
‘Karla Villacís is very professional and has excellent judgment. She is in permanent contact with her clients and has immediate and close access to them. Additionally, as a leader, she develops and empowers her work team very well. José Endara is our main contact in the day-to-day business. He is very professional and diligent in meeting all requirements.'
‘The service provided by Lexvalor is of high quality with very competent people and a great ability to share knowledge. Their services always go above and beyond with a high and reliable level of closeness.'
‘They are very knowledgeable, know the market very well and can give solid arguments. They generate a high level of trust and credibility towards its clients.'
‘The main characteristic of the team is the base of legal knowledge of Ecuador where the laws are very volatile and change day by day. Each person on the team has their specialism. Furthermore, their quality as people means that the work can be carried out pleasantly despite the difficulty of the cases to be resolved.'
