Main Aspects


Sanctions and Penalties

01

Initial dialogue
with the client


The first phase of the service involves a deep understanding of the incident from the client perspective. At this stage, our team gathers all relevant documents, such as the bidding notice and the contract, and thoroughly discusses the context and events that led to the sanction or penalty. This initial approach is crucial to forming a solid foundation for the defense.

02

Contact with the
penalizing authority


After collecting and conducting a preliminary analysis of the documents, our lawyers proceed with a detailed examination of the administrative process and the notifications received. Initial actions are then taken with the responsible authority to attempt an early understanding or correction of the punitive actions.

03

Defensive
strategy


Based on the information gathered and the applicable legislation, we devise a legal strategy aimed at minimizing or reversing the impact of the imposed penalties. This plan includes addressing any legal gaps that may harm the companies position, seeking the best possible resolution of the case.

04

Preparation of
the defense


Depending on the case, our team prepares the most appropriate administrative or judicial defense to effectively contest the penalty. This step focuses on halting the penalty as quickly as possible, utilizing all available legal resources and arguments.

We understand that sanctions and penalties can stem from various sources, ranging from simple errors to more complex failures in following bidding procedures. In many cases, simple warnings may suffice to meet the educational and punitive objectives of the sanctions.

However, when the actions of penalizing authorities are excessive or unjust, it is essential to have competent defense. For these situations, our team develops Administrative Appeals and other legal actions to undo injustices, reprimand illegal acts, and, when possible, guide and educate public servants and entities on proper practices.

Assis & Siqueira Advogados Associados positions itself as a strategic ally for companies in disputes or adverse situations with bidding and oversight authorities, ensuring that each client receives personalized and highly specialized attention to overcome the legal challenges they face.
