MUÑIZ, FORSYTH, RAMIREZ, PEREZ-TAIMAN & LUNA-VICTORIA was founded by Jorge Muñiz Ziches in 1980. It has considerable professional experience and is one of the largest law firms in Peru, playing a dominant role in Peru's legal circles.

Our lawyers have graduated from the most prestigious Peruvian universities and many of them hold a Master's degree from leading U. S. and European universities, including Harvard University, Columbia University, the University of Pennsylvania, New York University, the University of Warwick (England), the University of Vienna (Austria) and the University of Barcelona (Spain). Our lawyers have worked under training programs for leading foreign law offices, such as Chadbourne & Parke, LLP; Dewey, Ballantine, Bushby, Palmer & Wood; Millbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy; Shearman & Sterling; and Rivera-Beiras (Spain).

Many of our lawyers have successfully filled important public and government positions and currently serve as professors at the most important law schools in Lima. They regularly publish legal articles in specialized dailies and magazines.

Our Firm tries to develop a solid commitment and a long-term relationship with its clients in order to be in a position to identify their business objectives and offer the necessary professional support, coupled with expertise, creativity and common sense. Thanks to this approach, our Firm has successfully built up an important list of clients, including leading members of the international business community in the industrial, bank and finance, commercial, oil, mining, electricity and other fields.

Our Firm assigns a lawyer, called "Attaché," to each client, and said Attaché is responsible for being in direct contact with the client, and for seeking the most efficient and cost-effective strategy to be applied in each specific case entrusted to our Firm. If, due the nature of any given case, the participation of more than one specialized area is required, the Attaché will be responsible for setting up an appropriate work team of partners, associates and legal assistants to deal with said specific case. In this way, the client's needs are addressed in every instance on an interdisciplinary basis.
