Testimonials

- 'A go-to capital markets team in Peru.'
- 'Juan Luis Avendaño is excellent and particularly experienced in the banking sector.’
'I have worked especially with José Miguel Puigross and Juan Luis Avendaño and what stands out in all of them is their availability, what I look for is to have lawyers who are always available to solve/absolve doubts, and in the Miranda & Amado team, I have found people who go at my pace.'
'Sometimes I make requests or ask questions outside working hours, and they are always available to answer. I really appreciate their commitment.'
'It is a fairly solid team, both in terms of knowledge and teamwork.'
'I have worked with them and there have been times in which the main associate of the transaction has had to be out of the office, and this did not result in any delay to the processes since the person who covered it was very aware of the operation.'
