Commercial Transactions

Providing legal advice to clients doing business in Paraguay is one of the strengths of Berkemeyer. Advice is provided on local and international transactions, drafting of legal documents, sale contracts, e-contracts, representation, agency and distribution agreements, agri-business and export contracts, biotechnology contracts, maquila (assembly plant) contracts, licensing and franchising, advertising and promotion, research and development, technology-transfer contracts, and lease contracts. We provide legal assistance to obtain letters of credit and bills of exchange, and counsel clients regarding import-export requirements, customs regulations and procedures.

We provide special assistance and thorough contract review to foreign companies on protectionist local measures, like Law No.194 applicable to foreign companies and local companies that have an agency, distribution or representation relationship in the country.
