We are a multicultural and multilingual law firm.
We are Local, National, and Global in nature, reflective of the city of our headquarters, the dynamic, cosmopolitan, and international ‘paella’ which is the Republic of Miami:
Local in that we handle matters which disproportionately impact Florida (International Business Law, Real Estate, and Business Immigration). National in that we work with national clients who call Florida or Latin America home. Global in that we serve clients who gateway through Florida to transact business around the world.
We handle the full gamut of legal matters, from the routine corporate formation all the way through the complex cross-border transaction.
Our ideal clients are great people. People, not multinational corporations, people. And by great people we mean people who believe in integrity and practice it every day, rich, poor, or middle class.…
