Legal Solutions Panama Attends "A Return to Our Roots: Focus on Pure Plan B Strategies"

By Legal Solutions3 minute read

Kathia Rivera and Samuel Chang

Panama continues to establish itself as one of the top destinations for those looking to diversify their lives, their assets, and their future beyond their home country. That’s why Legal Solutions Panama couldn’t miss "A Return to Our Roots: Focus on Pure Plan B Strategies," the conference organized by Schiff Sovereign, which brought together investors, attorneys, financial advisors, and international experts in Panama around a single theme: the importance of having a true contingency plan — a genuine "Plan B" — in the face of global uncertainty.


Our CEO, Kathia Rivera, and our attorney and partner, Lic. Samuel Chang, represented the firm at the event, actively taking part in the discussions and strengthening our relationships with the international community that sees Panama as far more than a destination — as a real platform for personal and financial sovereignty. It’s worth noting that Legal Solutions Panama is the official legal partner of Schiff Sovereign in Panama, which made this event a special opportunity to reinforce that alliance and stay closely connected with the international community that trusts our firm to turn their Plan B strategies into reality in the country.

What Was the Event About?

"A Return to Our Roots" brought together some of the most respected names in the Plan B strategy world to discuss the core pillars of asset protection and personal freedom amid growing economic, political, and regulatory uncertainty worldwide:


  • International asset diversification, as a tool to protect against economic crises, political instability, or sudden regulatory changes at home.

  • Second residencies and citizenships, as a legal path to greater mobility, security, and life options beyond borders.

  • Properly structured, fully legal offshore financial and legal structures, designed to protect wealth within the framework of the law.

  • Panama’s role as a strategic jurisdiction within this global Plan B ecosystem, thanks to its stability, legal system, geographic location, and immigration programs.

The event’s name, "a return to our roots," captures the philosophy behind these strategies well: these aren’t new concepts, but basic principles of financial and personal prudence — having options, not depending on a single system, country, or legal framework — that are once again becoming highly relevant.

 

Why We Attended, and Why It Matters to Us

At Legal Solutions Panama, we work every day with local and international clients looking for exactly that: options. Whether through company formation, asset protection structures, or immigration and residency processes, our job is to turn these global strategies into concrete, secure legal solutions tailored to Panama.

Attending events like this allows us to:


  • Stay at the forefront of international trends in wealth and immigration planning.

  • Connect directly with the global community interested in Panama as a Plan B jurisdiction.

  • Strengthen our network of allies — financial advisors, international firms, and personal sovereignty experts — with whom we collaborate on behalf of our clients.

  • Hear firsthand from those evaluating Panama as part of their strategy, and bring those insights back into our legal practice.

For a firm like ours, working daily with clients who need legal certainty for decisions as important as where to live, how to protect their assets, or how to structure their international life, being present in conversations like this isn’t optional — it’s part of our commitment to providing advice that’s current, informed, and truly connected to what our clients are looking for.

Lic. Samuel Chang, Panelist on the Panama Immigration Programs Forum

One of the highlights of the event for our firm was our partner Lic. Samuel Chang’s participation as a panelist in the forum dedicated to Panama’s immigration programs, a key session within the conference for anyone looking to understand how to obtain legal residency in the country.


During the panel, Samuel drew on his legal experience to walk attendees through the variety of paths currently available to obtain residency in Panama, including:

  • The Friendly Nations Visa, one of the most popular options for investors and professionals from countries with friendly relations with Panama.

  • The Panama-Italy Treaty, a residency path available to Italian citizens under the bilateral agreements between both countries.

  • The Financial Solvency Program, for those who can demonstrate financial stability through fixed-term deposits, real estate investment, or a combination of both.

  • The Pensionado (Retiree) Program, ideal for those looking to retire in the country with tax and lifestyle benefits.

  • Family-Based Residency, for those with Panamanian relatives or permanent resident family members seeking to reunite in the country.

  • The Qualified Investor Visa, designed for those making significant investments in the country.

 

One key idea stood out from the panel discussion: choosing the right residency path isn’t just paperwork, it’s a strategic decision. Every profile — investor, retiree, entrepreneur, remote professional — has different needs, and the immigration route chosen should align with their long-term goals, whether that’s asset protection, tax planning, international mobility, or simply quality of life.

This is precisely the kind of guidance Legal Solutions Panama offers: not just processing a visa, but designing, together with each client, the immigration and legal path that best connects their personal and financial goals with the real opportunities Panama has to offer.
