People need to feel covered on the legal front, in order to relax and be able to enjoy the life they have chosen to live in the Mexican Pacific. Parada, Martínez & Associates, understand this legitimate concern, and offer a wide array of legal services focused to respond to it.
With more than twenty five years of combined experience of local practice, Parada, Martínez & Associates differentiates itself from other law firms with two pillars on their service: honesty and fair prices.
Martha and Marcela Parada González are the daughters of renowned criminal lawyer Pedro Parada Gutiérrez, an institution in the legal world of Jalisco. Even though they recognize the great influence that their father has had on their career, that hasn’t stopped them from making a name by themselves, and opening their own law firm, specialized in corporate law. Raúl Martínez Endia who is in charge of the litigation area, is Martha’s husband, which makes of Parada, Martínez & Associates a family business.
They are part of a new generation of Mexican professionals that understand globalization as part of our daily lives and work according to that reality. Bilingual services are a given at Parada, Martínez & Associates, which is incredibly not as common as you would expect in Puerto Vallarta.
This article is another example of the fresh ideas the law firm has about the legal business. Martha says that, when talking to her colleagues about introducing the use of new technologies on their business, they all rejected the idea. “That’s not how the legal business works”, they said. But then again, that’s what the music industry said not that long ago…
Parada, Martínez & Associates vision of the future of their law firm, is one that includes an interactive website where their clients will be able to consult the state of their affairs in real-time and a secure way; they will also be able to upload documents for their customers who might be anywhere in the world; the constant use of videoconference or chat to keep an open communication with their clients will be a common practice. In definitive, their goal is to provide legal services in a modern, transparent and efficient way.
So, how does it work? It’s very simple, Marcela says. “The client calls us, we arrange an appointment where we discuss the case. We give them our legal opinion about it, what can be done, what cannot be done, an approximation of how much it would cost and how much time it would take. That’s all in the first meeting. After that, our customer has to decide if he or she wants to go forward with the legal proceeding.”
Parada, Martínez & Associates offers an array of legal services in Puerto Vallarta, Guadalajara, México City and León, from something as simple as getting married in Puerto Vallarta, to more complex issues as immigration proceedings, work permits or real estate acquisitions. “It’s incredible, how many properties are sold, without having the actual deeds for them. That’s when you need an honest lawyer telling you what you may not want to hear, but what you need to know”, says Raúl.
If you are looking for a law firm where customer service is the priority, honesty the norm and a first world service at Mexico’s prices, then Parada, Martínez & Associates is the law firm for you.
