Bruchou & Funes de Rioja‘s specialist team provides comprehensive assistance with import and export matters, advising clients on tariff classifications, customs valuations, licences, permits and quotas. The practice also handles anti-dumping and countervailing duty matters, as well as foreign import and export regimes and free trade agreements. Contentious matters are another busy area, with the team successfully representing clients before customs offices and in administrative and judicial proceedings. Clients also seek the firm out to conduct internal audits and advise on the strategic planning of foreign trade operations. María Laura Bacigalupo is a respected senior name on the roster, offering specialist insight into planning foreign trade operations. Andrea C. Callegari, who was recently promoted to the role of expert consultant, focuses on customs litigation and leads the second line. Senior associate Sebastián Lerner, an international logistics and export regimes expert, is another key name. Former practice head Eduardo Mallea departed the firm to serve as director general of the customs regulator in May 2024.
