Peroni Sosa Tellechea Burt & Narvaja (PSTBN) is one of the largest firms in Paraguay and is the Martindale-Hubbell reviser on Paraguay law. PSTBN was established in 1968. Through its members, PSTBN has been an active participant in legal innovation in Paraguay, advising the government on development strategies, working closely with Congress to enact new legislation, and taking active part in university education.

PSTBN offers a broad range of legal services for clients involved in international and local transactions in Paraguay. The firm is constantly motivated to maintain a competitive edge in providing complete legal solutions to its clients and its leading position is built on its ability to support clients in highly complex business transactions, advising multinational corporations, financial institutions and local companies in a broad range of practice areas. The firm has been involved in most of the major deals and relevant cases over the past few years in virtually every sector of business.

The firm has recruited and engaged renowned professionals in their respective practice areas. PSTBN’s specialisation includes corporate matters such as mergers and acquisitions, urban and rural real estate, foreign investment, maritime and aviation, logistics infrastructure, project financing, telecommunications, banking and international finance, mineral and oil exploration projects, labor relations, general civil litigation, taxation, counseling before local government agencies and legislative bodies, maquila projects, distribution agreements, franchising and licensing agreements, and intellectual property matters.

Representation in the courts and administrative agencies is an important activity of PSTBN, as plaintiffs or defendants in several landmark civil and commercial cases. The intellectual property department, supported by the latest technology, covers every aspect of trademark, copyright and patent practice, and commercial use within Paraguay by foreign and local companies.

Partners of the firm are also members of the board of directors of a wide range of important companies and ONGs domiciled in Paraguay, some of which are also clients. In other cases they have been invited to join not because of a relationship with the firm, but for their individual legal capacities, skills and their social responsibility attitude towards the community and its environmental surroundings. This privileged situation gives the firm, as a whole, the advantage of a broad base of experience in almost all the areas of the economic activity of the country.

The firm prides itself on keeping its tradition in the practice of law, providing personal attention to clients with great involvement from all partners in the cases handled.
