The partner responsible for each client is always available and in contact with the client, a situation that in many law firms does not happen.
Cannizzo encourages the ability of its lawyers to work in multi-cultural and multi-jurisdictional environments and to develop “cultural translator” habilities that allow the client to understand not only the Mexican legal field but also the business landscape in its daily activities.
We understand that our work needs to understand the business nature of our clients. We promote this culture among our lawyers. Most of them, in addition to provide their legal services, also serve as members of boards and committees of various Mexican organizations (including companies listed on the Mexican stock exchange) this allows them to have, in addition to their legal background, an additional business understanding.
We promote in our lawyers the ability to negotiate and understand the important aspects of each negotiation, as well as being creative and proactive in looking for the most appropriate legal solutions, schemes and vehicles to achieve the client's objectives.
The respect of confidentiality is an aspect that we take care carefully. In addition, we have an special sensitivity to take care, respect and enforce the internal policies of our clients, including those of sustainability, anti-laundering, anti-corruption, respect for diversity, anti-harassment. We always ask our clients to inform us about it and we take care to raise awareness about the lawyers, associates and interns working on the account.
In Cannizzo we always take special care to let our clients know about situations of potential conflict of interest. In the event that our firm represents companies that compete in the same market (or that is considered as competitors), we implement schemes or barriers to prevent these conflict situations from occurring. It should be noted that on several occasions we have successfully represented in reciprocal satisfaction to client companies that have acted as counterparts in the same transactions so that we can guarantee maximum sensitivity and efficiency also in circumstances of this type.
We are convinced that a good work environment is the key to the success of our firm and the quality of the work we do. Therefore, we promote the personal and cultural growth of our lawyers and a healthy, positive and non-conflictive work environment.
