Casellas Alcover & Burgos, P.S.C.

Firm Overview:
Casellas Alcover & Burgos, P.S.C. remains at its core, for more than a decade, the go-to commercial litigation boutique in Puerto Rico delivering results, and exceptional and responsive services cost-effectively to a wide range of corporate clients and individuals.

Specialized Service - Corporate clients, particularly those in regulated business sectors, frequently resort to specialized firms for their legal needs. Instead of solely relying on large law firms defined by their one-stop shop model and substantial overhead, corporate clients increasingly choose a boutique law firm–as they are frequently called–for tax, insurance, environmental, employment and litigation. The need for specialized experience and counsel drives this trend. Casellas Alcover & Burgos in San Juan, Puerto Rico is one such boutique.

Experience - The firm’s partnership has over 90 combined years of litigation and counseling experience in complex commercial and tax litigation, class actions, alternative dispute resolution and counseling in distribution, antitrust and trade regulation, insurance defense, public contracts and procurement, intellectual property, copyrights and trademarks, products liability, employment discrimination, health law, and First Amendment defense. The vast majority of the firm's attorneys are former judicial law clerks at the federal district court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, and Puerto Rico's intermediate appellate court and the Supreme Court.

Hands-On Client Service - Corporate clients look to litigation boutiques like Casellas Alcover & Burgos because they want partners to tackle their litigation hands-on, especially the big “bet-the-company” kind of cases. At Casellas Alcover & Burgos, everyone gets to know how clients operate and is attuned to their specific circumstances, improving the efficiency and quality of the service.

Commitment to Quality - Virtually all of the lawyers at the firm are former judicial law clerks at the federal district court, First Circuit, and Puerto Rico appellate and Supreme Court levels. The environment at this firm is typical of the most successful litigation boutiques: a balanced mix of big law firm quality practices, small law firm congeniality, and attention to detail. Associates at the firm hone their skills as litigators under the supervision of partners, who teach that hard work, intellectual commitment, constant communication with clients and, frankly, a love for the practice and a desire to win is the formula for success. Lawyers also attend seminars regularly, to keep abreast of complex changes in the law, and teach CLE and bar admission courses to graduates.

Legal Excellence - Projecting the firm’s expertise worldwide, is CAB’s Blog on Law 75 in Puerto Rico www.cabprlaw.blogspot.com, the first and only website dedicated to Puerto Rico’s distribution law and franchising developments. The firm also benefits from every technological advance available, which has improved the way lawyers research the law, communicate with clients, manage their caseloads and practice and advocate their client’s interests. At Casellas Alcover & Burgos, P.S.C. we spare no resources to stay ahead of the pack.
