Lima, November 2020.- After forty years of operations in the country, Rubio Leguía Normand, the law firm that has managed to position itself as the firm that provides support in ethical, reliable and safe legal decision-making, is committed to transforming and improving its service offering in the legal market.
This transformation plan seeks to consolidate the current legal areas, with the incorporation of six new partners - and their teams - in the last three years, as well as the improvement of the digitalization in their processes, driven by the pandemic.
"Turning 40 in times of coronavirus has been a unique experience. From our Foundation to the present day, there are things of our essence that remain. And there are others whose changes have accelerated, especially this 2020," says Victor Ferro, Partner of the Labor Area, and Founder of the leading law firm in Peru
"For example, we maintain our full-service model, which allows us to get to know our clients in the different areas of their business activity by offering them comprehensive legal solutions for different areas. In addition, to preserve our identity, in these 40 years we have preferred to remain an independent local firm, and act globally through Terralex, the largest network of law firms worldwide," said the lawyer.
In the last few years, the law firm has made an effort to incorporate valuable policies on gender equality, thanks to which its team is made up of 40% female partners, the highest percentage among the main law firms in the country. In addition, in total, the firm's associates are in the order of 50/50.
"What the pandemic accelerated was the technological transformation. In Peru, legal services offered online will become more prevalent. Fortunately, at Rubio Leguía Normand, we have the necessary technology. To quote two cases, we have adopted a cloud-based document management system, which allows our team to access 100% of documents; and we have also reinforced our communication processes with cyber security," continued Ferro.
By 2021, the firm expects to consolidate the transformation of its processes towards digitalization. In addition, it is optimistic about the reactivation of several sectors in the country, driven by large projects, such as the reconstruction of the north, and the recovery of M&A processes.
