We handle cases related to customs infractions and offenses, representing both individuals and legal entities in criminal proceedings involving smuggling, falsification of customs documentation, customs concealment, and other conduct defined under the Customs Code (Law No. 22,415).


We provide comprehensive technical-legal advice from the administrative stage before the General Customs Directorate (DGA) to the criminal stage before the Economic Criminal Court.


Our experience includes the defense and representation of importers, exporters, foreign trade operators, and other parties subject to customs regulations in high-stakes criminal cases with significant economic impact.


We intervene in all stages of the criminal process, from filing criminal complaints and the investigation phase to the execution of the sentence. We represent both victims and accused individuals in complaints, preliminary hearings, and oral trials, actively working on defense strategy planning and criminal litigation.


We provide assistance with requests for release from custody, exemption from imprisonment, mitigated coercive measures (such as house arrest), and the termination of preventive detention, as well as changes in penitentiary service regimes (semi-open or open units).

We work on all types of offenses contemplated by the Argentine Penal Code, including threats, assault, property damage, gender-based violence, petty theft, robbery, fraud, cybercrimes such as grooming, and other crimes against persons and property.


We advise and defend individuals and legal entities in proceedings related to the Foreign Exchange Criminal Regime, in accordance with Law No. 19,359 and its amendments. Our involvement covers both the administrative stage before the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) and the judicial stage, in cases where foreign exchange offenses are alleged.


We have experience in cases involving violations of foreign exchange controls, simulated foreign trade operations, falsified documentation, among other offenses.


Our expertise and technical knowledge allow us to approach these cases comprehensively—anticipating risks and protecting our clients’ rights in the face of potential criminal charges or foreign exchange penalties.


We intervene in extradition proceedings, collaborate with professionals and law firms from other countries, and participate in litigation before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), as well as in submissions before the International Criminal Court (ICC) in cases related to international crimes and serious human rights violations.

We provide advice to obligated entities on matters related to the prevention of money laundering and the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) in accordance with Law No. 25,246. We also offer assistance and legal defense to obligated entities in sanctioning proceedings initiated by the Financial Intelligence Unit (UIF).
