WHO WE ARE
DCMS Legal is defined by quality, commitment, professionalism, ethics, diligence, depth, and effectiveness. Born from the merger—based on our prior knowledge and friendship among all partners, as well as the complete alignment of shared values between Di Iorio Casir & Sanchez Vaqueiro and Malis & Asociados —we are fundamentally business lawyers committed to deeply understanding our clients’ needs, goals, motivations, and circumstances in order to add value and achieve results.
We focus on providing personalized attention to our clients with a deep concern for the fulfillment of the objectives and the excellence of the service we provide.
We strongly believe in thorough analysis, teamwork, respect for our clients and colleagues, proactivity, personal and professional ethical standards, creativity, and dedication.
We take great pride in our team. Our “roundtable” approach—radically different from the traditional hierarchical structure of conventional law firms—has proven to be an exceptional model for fostering deep engagement with our clients’ matters and for consistently seeking the best solutions on their behalf.
At DCMS Legal, we are a boutique law firm. We are committed to preserving our essence, which means maintaining the ability to selectively engage in matters where we can dedicate our full energy.
