AREAS OF PRACTICE

---

We advise U.S. and international clients on complex cross-border matters involving Latin America, leveraging deep cultural understanding, bilingual capabilities (English, Spanish, and Portuguese), and a robust network of local counsel. Our core services include negotiating and drafting international contracts, joint ventures, and distribution agreements; advising on foreign investment and trade compliance; resolving contractual disputes with Latin American counterparties; and structuring transactions that ensure compliance with both U.S. and foreign laws.

With an appreciation for local business customs, negotiation styles, and country-specific cultural dynamics, we help clients successfully enter or expand in markets across Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America while mitigating risks. This practice is particularly valuable for clients preparing for opportunities in a free Cuba, including Helms-Burton Title III claims and property restitution matters.

We represent businesses and individuals in high-stakes disputes in Florida state and federal courts. Our experience spans contract breaches, partnership and LLC governance conflicts, shareholder derivative actions, fiduciary duty claims, and complex commercial litigation.

Applying the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, we emphasize strategic motion practice, efficient discovery, mediation, and trial advocacy to achieve favorable resolutions while minimizing disruption and cost.

We aggressively pursue and defend claims involving business torts, including fraud, tortious interference with contracts or business relationships, defamation, unfair competition, and deceptive trade practices under Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (FDUTPA). 

We also handle antitrust matters under the Sherman Act, including monopolistic practices and conspiracies.

Our approach protects client reputation, economic interests, and competitive position through targeted litigation and regulatory advocacy.

We guide entrepreneurs, family-owned businesses, and established enterprises through entity formation and ongoing governance in Florida. Services include selecting the optimal structure (LLCs, corporations, partnerships), drafting operating agreements and shareholder agreements, founder equity arrangements, repurchase rights, and ensuring compliance with the Florida Business Corporation Act and other statutes.

We lay a strong legal foundation that supports growth, protects owners, and mitigates future disputes.

We represent whistleblowers who uncover and expose corporate fraud, financial misconduct, and violations of federal and state laws. Our practice includes filing qui tam actions under the False Claims Act (FCA), as well as claims involving securities fraud, RICO violations, and other whistleblower protections.

We provide confidential counsel, strategic investigation support, and aggressive advocacy to secure substantial recoveries for clients and the government while safeguarding whistleblower identities and rights. This area complements our strengths in RICO, antitrust, and complex commercial litigation.

As Florida immigration attorneys, we assist individuals, families, and businesses with the full range of immigration matters, including nonimmigrant and immigrant visas, adjustment of status (I-485), TPS, waivers, deportation defense, consular processing, and naturalization.

We navigate the complexities of the Immigration and Nationality Act with personalized, results-oriented guidance while maintaining strict ethical standards.

We provide comprehensive legal services to athletes, leagues, teams, talent, influencers, and entertainment companies in Florida’s dynamic sports and entertainment sector. Our work includes contract negotiation, endorsement and licensing deals, intellectual property protection, regulatory compliance, and dispute resolution.

Notable experience includes serving as Chief Legal Officer for the Puerto Rico Soccer League, supporting league operations and infrastructure initiatives.
