Commercial Litigation

Litigation can be costly, time-consuming, and stressful. You cannot afford delays or uncertainty – what you need is reliability, efficiency, and results.

AVILA’s vast trial and arbitration experience allows our lawyers to provide comprehensive representation across all aspects of litigation, arbitration, mediation and investigations, as well as foreign and cross-border disputes, often serving as Spanish-speaking local counsel for Big Law and foreign law firms.

AVILA’s litigation and arbitration team works closely with our clients to determine the best course of action to reach favorable outcomes and minimize risks in controversial matters. We understand the importance of having the right representation from experienced attorneys, backed by a reputable law firm.

We know that our aggressive strategy and ability to identify practical objectives are key to effectively meeting our clients’ demands. Our team has successfully represented clients before the International Criminal Court (ICC), American Arbitration Association (AAA), International Center for Dispute Resolution (ICDR), Inter-American Commerical Arbitration Commission (IACAC), and United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) rules.
