Review
The reason for being 8 LEGAL is to accompany people
along the various paths where their ideas and dreams
are moved, in order to turn those dreams into concrete
realities.
Forseveralyearswehaveworkeddecidedlytoconsolidate
ourselves professionally in the legal and business fields,
in several regions of the world, where we continue to
travel, specialising and building trust and credibility.
We continue to be a dynamic bridge of communication
between the cultures of the East and the Latin world.
In addition to our beloved COLOMBIA and the ASIA-
PACIFIC region where we were born, grew and remain
active with great momentum, we have extended our
activities to EUROPE and other SOUTHEAST ASIAN
countries.
In 2019, we visited MALAYSIA and SINGAPORE where we
are already creating interesting synergies and planning
projects that will undoubtedly soon be consolidated.
We have an outstanding international group of allied
professionals, who share our service philosophy and
support - in real time - the needs of our clients.
In 8 LEGAL we understand that each culture is unique
and special, therefore, we value the spiritual, cultural
and social expressions of the peoples that welcome us,
and we abide by the legal norms and customs of the
nations with which we interact.
With the best energy and attitude, we will work during
the year 2020 in which we will continue growing, learning
and sharing our experiences.

overcome your fear.” Isabell Allende. (Chilean writer of
