The Firm adds new resources to solidify the services offered to its business partners
One year after the world changed due to the impact of the pandemic, companies from all industries have turned to the evolution and reformulation of their services to adapt to what is certainly a new model of doing business. Similarly, the dynamic environment and changes in tax legislation, both local and federal, in addition to the arrival of new sources of financing and development of public works, open a window of opportunities for the management and advisory of these entities.
At Falcon-Sanchez & Associates, PSC we take pride in having the best qualified resources to provide a first-class service to our business partners. As part of our evolution, we have added very valuable assets that strengthen that experience and the capabilities that our Firm has to fulfill our mission: to be allies of our clients in the search of solutions in an increasingly challenging environment of doing business.
We are pleased to announce the arrival of two new resources to our Firm:
