The highly experienced administrative and public law team at Ferrere provides a one-stop-shop service to private companies and both state and independent public entities across the full range of industries, particularly the fintech sector. With a strong footing in the infrastructure and construction space, the firm is involved in turn-key projects, concessions and project finance, and also advises on the preparation of private initiative proposals and agreements with the state. As well as guiding clients through competitive bid processes, the team is experienced in administrative litigation and disputes, including appeals, actions and protections. With a wealth of public sector experience, recently-appointed managing partner Carlos Codas is well-placed to head the team and leads on administrative litigation matters. Practice co-head Maurizio De Oliveira is a senior associate who also specialises in administrative disputes, and handles disciplinary procedures and inquiries. Carlos Vasconsellos has extensive experience in privately financed infrastructure projects and turn-key projects in Paraguay, excelling in negotiations with both public entities and private sponsorships. Senior associate Claudia Arietti strengthens the team’s capabilities in the infrastructure sector, regularly advising on PPP and turn-key projects. Associate Ana Cardozo is also praised by clients. Dario Capurro left the firm in December 2023.

‘Carlos Codas has solid experience in the public sector, especially in regard to banking and finance law, as his experience comes from years of working at the Central Bank of Paraguay. He has built of team of experienced professionals that complement his experience and are able to thoroughly advise clients on present and potential future issues of transactions and, specifically, in regards to potential observations/comments by the regulator.’
‘Good team, with a lot of knowledge on the subject.’
‘Strengths: Constant communication with the client; timely compliance with requirements. It compares very favourably to the other offices. Collaboration, personalised attention (by the principals) in all cases.’
‘Ferrere's local team is composed of qualified professionals with expertise in very specific areas, such as Public Private Partnership. In addition, they count on the technical support from the team located at their main office, which makes a great difference from other law firms. In addition, their knowledge of the local positive law offers a nice comfort for their clients.’
‘The team assigned by the partner in charge of our account has a great knowledge of the topics we needed legal support. They were always available to respond our questions and to meet in person to adjust the working schedule or to provide solutions to our case.’
‘The difference with other firms is the multidisciplinary team, in legal aspects, that Ferrere makes itself available. In contracts with the state, in addition to specific knowledge of administrative law, corporate lawyers accompany them to ensure that they do not fail to specify the commercial aspects of the contract. They always assist the client with a team of several professionals.’
‘The firm's lawyers have a quick and precise response. They quickly understand the client's requirements and do not try to make their ideas prevail but rather adapt the solutions to the client's needs. It is a culture, all the lawyers in the firm act in a similar way. The professionals are: Carlos Vasconsellos, Claudia Arietti, Maurizio De Oliveira, Ana Cardozo.'
‘Very attentive and capable: Eduardo Ammantuna and Ana Cardozo.’
