We like to integrate ourselves as an active part of the company that we work for, ensuring that they see us as another member of the team
We want to be the kind of advisor that transmits assurance when you need legal support.
We like to explain things in a simple and understandable way, without complex words or references to regulations that, while important, often make our job difficult to understand.
Mental Health has become one of the biggest problems in today’s society.
At Vervo Legal, we are fully aware of this problem, and we are constantly searching for projects that allow us to do our bit with regard to this subject.
“Learn to see and value the beauty of every color, and you will then understand everything that you are missing if you only see things in black and white” This is our motto. Diverse and inclusive.
We are fully committed to minimizing the impact that we, as a company, could have on the environment.
In order to accomplish this, we implement different measures that allow us to reach this goal, from the digitalization of all of our processes as a Paper Free company, to collaborating with non-profit organizations, which allows us to do our bit in making this planet a better place for everyone.
Each year, we pledge to invest part of our workday on projects to support different causes related to our values.
We want to demonstrate that our commitment to a better world is real. Thus, from December 2023, we will publish an annual report including the list of the projects in which we have participated.
