Our Corporate Law & Incorporation practice provides comprehensive legal support to local and international clients doing business in Costa Rica. We assist multinational companies, entrepreneurs, family-owned businesses, and individual investors in structuring, establishing, and developing their operations with clarity, efficiency, and legal certainty.
We understand that every client’s business objective, risk profile, and operational needs are different. For that reason, we prioritize immediate, responsive, high-quality and attentive client service. We take the time to understand our clients’ concerns, expectations, and long-term plans, providing clear and practical guidance from the very first consultation. Our approach is not merely transactional; we serve as trusted advisors committed to delivering tailored and transparent solutions aligned with each client’s strategic vision.
Our team combines in-depth knowledge of Costa Rican corporate, commercial, regulatory and registry law with a strong business-oriented mindset. We provide sound legal advice and practical recommendations on the selection of corporate structures based on the client’s operational model, governance preferences, tax considerations, liability prevention, and growth plans. We also coordinate with other areas of our firm so all advise is multidimensional and takes into account not only the client’s corporate matters, but also aligns with labor, free trade zone, real estate, regulatory, permitting and all other sectors.
We guide our clients through the entire incorporation process, ensuring efficient structuring, proper governance design, and full compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. We also provide ongoing corporate advisory services, supporting clients in shareholders’ meetings, corporate governance matters, with the yearly filing of the declaration of the Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO) statement (in Costa Rica, commonly called “transparency declaration”) before the Costa Rican Central Bank (“BCCR”), capital restructurings, mergers and acquisitions, fusions, due diligence processes, and corporate reorganizations, among many other matters.
Our preventive counseling model allows clients to anticipate risks, maintain regulatory compliance, and adopt best practices in corporate governance. By proactively addressing potential contingencies, we help minimize disputes, operational disruptions, and unnecessary costs.
We act as strategic partners to our clients, offering timely and comprehensive legal solutions that facilitate informed decision-making. Our goal is to provide legal certainty, operational flexibility, and a solid corporate foundation that allows our clients to focus confidently on growing their business in Costa Rica.
Your legal allies. We develop a deep understanding of our clients’ businesses and objectives to deliver practical legal planning and structuring tailored to their needs and expectations.
