Overview

Our Commercial Litigation practice group represents clients in complex business disputes across a wide range of industries, with a focus on practical, strategic, and results-oriented advocacy. We advise and defend corporations, financial institutions, insurers, developers, closely held businesses, nonprofit organizations, and individual stakeholders in matters involving contractual disputes, corporate and partnership conflicts, banking and lending controversies, construction claims, insurance coverage issues, distribution and franchising disputes, collection actions, real estate litigation, and business torts.

Our attorneys understand that commercial disputes can significantly affect a client’s operations, reputation, finances, and long-term business objectives. For that reason, we approach each matter with a clear understanding of the client’s commercial goals, risk tolerance, and desired outcome. Whether through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, administrative proceedings, or trial, we work to develop efficient strategies tailored to the specific dispute and the client’s broader business interests.

The group regularly handles disputes before the courts of Puerto Rico and federal courts, as well as alternative dispute resolution forums. Our experience includes pre-litigation counseling, emergency remedies, injunctions, discovery strategy, dispositive motions, trial preparation, settlement negotiations, appeals, and enforcement of judgments. We also work closely with the firm’s corporate, banking, construction, insurance, intellectual property, government affairs, and regulatory practice areas to provide integrated advice in disputes involving highly specialized commercial issues.

By combining litigation experience with business-focused judgment, our Commercial Litigation practice group helps clients navigate conflict, protect their rights, and pursue favorable resolutions in high-stakes commercial matters.
