About Grace & Nelson

A family-run firm in Cuenca, a UNESCO World Heritage city, practising Ecuadorian law for more than 25 years.

The firm

The firm is named after its founding partners, Grace Velastegui López and Nelson Idrovo Hugo. It's organised as a civil association of professionals: each attorney is personally responsible for the work they take on.

Most of our clients are from the United States, Canada and Europe. We also work for companies, schools and organisations that bring people to Ecuador. We don't take criminal cases; if you need a criminal lawyer, we'll point you to one.
