Since when do you practice law and provide legal advice?
For more than 20 years. It’s worth noting that the Costa Rican Bar Association (Colegio de Abogados de Costa Rica) regulates our legal practice. To be an attorney, I first had to become a Licentiate in Law, the equivalent to a Juris Doctor. After this, I was tested by the Costa Rican Bar. Once the Bar examinations were passed, I became an attorney and began my legal practice back in the year 2000.
Do you practice law as a litigator?
Yes. Litigation and civil procedures are my specialty. I will be happy to represent you with any legal dispute, in any judicial matter. From filing lawsuits to counterclaims. My specialty is Procedure Law, so I am an expert in litigation, especially in civil litigation and family disputes.
