Behind every project is a business that chose to move forward instead of standing still. We’re proud to have helped entrepreneurs, investors, and growing companies make some of their most important decisions with clarity and confidence.

Juliana was the first employee for my boutique consultancy based in Bogota. Very quickly she proved to have a competency and initiative that could not be confined to the original responsibilities of the role. She became the beating heart of the company, quickly assuming roles developing new products, undertaking deep research and establishing strong relations with a wide range of new clients. She would be an asset to anyone’s team.

Mat Y.CEO & Founder of an international advisory firm

Martha has been taking care of all my legal affairs in Colombia for well over ten years now. Everything from purchasing my condo, validating my marriage license and even helping me find great accountants has been thanks to her patience, hard work and dedication.

I wouldn’t change her for the world!

Kathy J.Business woman & Entrepreneur

While prestigious law firms would charge me US$ 2.000 to incorporate my company in Bogotá and barely take my calls, a friend recommended the best option for me: Juliana and Martha offering me a kind and extremely efficient approach. Couldn’t be happier!

Nicolas C.Entrepreneur and designer

We work in a very complicated and regulated market (medical cannabis), and CLE has been essential to keeping us compliant while scaling our operations. They are always ahead of regulatory changes and proactive with recommendations, and I love that they understand businesses and use that to improve our operations, too.

Jacques G.Canadian cannabis investor

From our very first call, Juliana and Martha made me feel confident about bringing my company in Colombia. They explained everything in simple terms and were always just a message away when I had questions or felt insecure. It never felt like I was just another client, and I have always felt they genuinely care about my success

Carolina H. Spanish entrepreneur and COO of a recently-funded tech start-up

Martha was recommended to me by the only person I knew in Colombia. At the beginning, I was overwhelmed and stressed when I couldn’t open a bank account and I barely spoke any Spanish. Today, I’ve learned to manage my accounts and I live here a part of the year.Thank you Martha’s for your infinite patience and dedication.

Juliana lleva siete años asesorando a nuestro proyecto de cannabis medicinal, incluso desde que Mannta era solo una idea. Ha sido un camino muy duro, pero tener un apoyo legal que nos entiende y que tiene un approach más flexible ha sido una gran ayuda para mí.

Pablo F.Gerente de compañía local de cannabis medicinal

Lo que más valoro de CLE es su cercanía, especialmente en un entorno tan particular como este. No se sienten como una firma tradicional, sino como aliadas estratégicas. Juliana y Martha se toman el tiempo de entender cada negocio y ofrecer soluciones prácticas, y eso nos ha encantado de trabajar juntas.

Juana D.Gerente de empresa multinivel con sede en Colombia

Juliana y Martha siempre responden rápido y con soluciones claras para los equipos que asesoro. Es muy valioso contar con abogados que realmente se preocupan por sus clientes y no solo por facturar.
