Argentine counsel with direct case supervision
Cárdenas & Associates advises and represents clients whose family or succession matter requires action in Argentina. Each enquiry is reviewed by Dr. Cárdenas Enzo Javier, lead lawyer of the firm, who defines the Argentine legal strategy and supervises the important stages of the matter.
Where foreign law is involved, the scope remains clear: we advise on Argentine law and proceedings and coordinate with appropriately qualified foreign professionals when the case requires it.
Frequently asked questions
Not necessarily. Many initial reviews, meetings and procedural steps can be handled remotely. Whether travel or a locally executed document is required depends on the matter.
Yes. You may write or send a voice message in English. Please do not worry if WhatsApp first sends an automatic reply in Spanish; the lawyer can continue the conversation in English.
Our work is limited to Argentine law and proceedings. When foreign-law advice is necessary, it must be provided by a professional qualified in that jurisdiction.
We first identify the connection with Argentina, the urgent issues, the relevant jurisdiction and the available documents. We then explain whether Argentine legal action appears appropriate.
