Trajectory

Giancarlo Benedetti advises on corporate law, intellectual property, and immigration matters at CHANIS. His LL.M. from Duke University School of Law — one of the leading law schools in the United States — gave him a rigorous academic foundation in comparative corporate and commercial law that directly informs how he structures governance arrangements, IP strategies, and immigration solutions for companies and investors operating in Panama.

Giancarlo’s corporate practice covers governance frameworks, commercial contracts, and the day-to-day legal needs of companies operating in Panama. His intellectual property practice focuses on trademark registration and enforcement, IP portfolio management, and IP diligence in corporate transactions — advising companies that treat their intangible assets as the core business assets they are. His immigration practice covers work permits, investor visas, and residency applications, coordinated with corporate and investment structuring so both move together.
