Beccar Varela

National and international companies turn to Beccar Varela for support on all matters concerning trade and trade policy. The firm also advises sovereign governments, and provides a comprehensive service that covers the import, transit, and export of goods, international distribution agreements, international sale of goods, dispute settlement, trade remedies, market access, export control and trade sanctions, trade compliance, trade and sustainability, rules of origin and labelling, e-commerce and foreign exchange regulations. Work on high-profile antidumping investigations and advice on import regimes have been particularly busy areas for the practice during the last 12 months, with the team’s expertise also extending to the application and negotiation of bilateral and multilateral trade agreements, including under World Trade Organisation (WTO) and Southern Common Market (Mercosur) rules, among several others. Customs matters are handled too, including transfer pricing, goods valuations and the implementation of international customs tax structures, as well as representing clients in lawsuits and administrative claims. The practice is co-led by Guido Krolovetzky, a customs law expert with strong grounding in international trade law, and Augusto Vechio, who is sought out for his international trade law expertise and leads on high-stakes antidumping investigations. A capable cohort of senior associates lead the firm’s second line, with Camila Corvalán offering support on antitrust, competition, consumer defence, fair trade and international trade matters, while Agustín Perrino and Mariano Plaza focus on trade law and matters related to WTO and Mercosur rules.
