Understanding International Litigation and Cross-Border Cases

Legal matters that involve parties, regulations, or court procedures in multiple countries are often complicated. I handle international cases involving civil litigation, criminal defense, and the intersection of these areas of practice. I also address international civil rights violations, including abuse and government misconduct, through litigation and effective advocacy.

Types of Cross-Border Legal Issues I Handle

For all of the international legal issues that demand the skilled intervention of a Miami cross‑border litigation lawyer, I’m here to advocate for individuals, small businesses, and others in need of trusted counsel. I’ve built my practice on the commitment to fight for the “little guy,” protecting my clients from unfounded allegations, unfair media attention, and uphill legal battles against opposing sides that are backed by an army of lawyers.

Among the types of international law cases I take on are:

  • Civil claims for damages arising out of various disputes, negligence, or misconduct
  • Allegations of human rights abuses in other countries
  • Business-related cases, including investor due diligence, partnership disputes, and company disparagement and defamation
  • Breaches of contracts made between parties based in different countries
  • Criminal defense matters that cross national borders and involve Interpol investigations and enforcement
  • Anti-suit injunctions and parallel proceedings of all kinds that involve legal actions filed in multiple jurisdictions

My experience practicing international law can also be valuable stateside in cases that involve U.S. government entities that interface with foreign nations. For example, I advise clients in proceedings and other matters before the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Asset Control and represent plaintiffs in matters under the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, which addresses private civil claims against foreign nations.

My History Handling International Legal Issues

As a well-traveled international litigation attorney in Miami, FL, I have either practiced law or contributed to the professional development of attorneys in numerous countries across the globe. My work investigating and litigating cross-border cases has taken me to Latin America, Asia, the Caribbean, and the Middle East.

Among the areas where my practice of international law has taken me include:

  • Argentina
  • China
  • Costa Rica
  • Honduras
  • Mexico
  • Peru
  • United Arab Emirates

I have also traveled internationally to lecture legal practitioners on a variety of litigation and alternative dispute-related topics, giving presentations in:

  • China
  • Costa Rica
  • Singapore
  • Spain
  • United Arab Emirates

From deposing a former high-ranking official in Peru to investigating human rights abuses in the United Arab Emirates, I take on the full challenges of leading sensitive investigations, conducting discovery, and litigating cases of all kinds. With an emphasis on building every case for a potential trial and strong negotiation skills that support settlements in my clients’ favor when appropriate, I’m committed to achieving the most beneficial outcome possible for every client I serve.

An International Litigation Attorney in Miami, FL, Ready to Fight for You on Short Notice

Not every attorney is prepared to hop on a plane at a moment’s notice to provide time-sensitive representation for legal matters across the globe. As an experienced Miami cross‑border litigation lawyer, I know that’s often exactly what’s needed to conduct a thorough investigation or represent a client in court in a foreign jurisdiction.

I am willing to travel anywhere on very little notice when needed. This commitment ensures that I can quickly reach my client, no matter where in the world they are, and be there when it’s time to face a judge, the media, or an accuser. With decades of experience in legal practice, including the practice of international law, I’m equipped to manage the nuances of cases in foreign court systems.

How Forge Litigation Group Can Help

Both within Florida’s borders and internationally, success in civil litigation requires extensive preparation. There are numerous stages of the legal process, each demanding certain actions and involving specific procedural requirements.

I’m here to handle every aspect of my clients’ cases, from speaking to witnesses and managing investigations to litigating cases and presenting claims in court. When these cases cross borders, I’m completely comfortable traveling to any location in the world to handle these critical tasks while ensuring compliance with foreign regulations and procedural requirements.

Choosing Forge Litigation Group to handle your international legal issue means choosing a Miami cross‑border litigation lawyer who has extensive experience handling cases across the globe, a readiness to travel, and dedication to fighting for your best interests.

Experience Handling International Litigation Matters Worldwide

In addition to having gained trial skills in my former role as Assistant Public Defender in Miami-Dade County, my 25 years of legal experience include working in the civil litigation departments of large regional and international law firms. In these roles and in my private practice, I’ve had the opportunity to work on legal matters around the world, gaining experience in understanding legal nuances and court procedures in various countries.

Because I have this background, I can confidently address the challenges involved in cross-border legal issues, navigating the litigation process in foreign courts without hesitation.

Willingness to Travel for Legal Representation, Even Internationally

Some attorneys are willing to travel to meet clients in jail, in a hospital, or in their home, but many shy away from international travel, particularly on short notice. I don’t. I’ve been known to fly across the globe at a moment’s notice when needed, and in some cases, to travel to a foreign country repeatedly to conduct a thorough investigation of a complex legal matter.

As your advocate, I put your needs above my own convenience. My top priority is securing the most favorable outcome possible for you.

Unwavering Advocacy and Trial-Readiness in Any Jurisdiction

As a trial lawyer, I recognize the importance of building every case for the possibility of going all the way to trial from the start. That doesn’t mean overlooking opportunities to negotiate a favorable settlement out of court. Rather, it means meticulously preparing claims for a potential trial early on.

This approach ensures that all options remain available to you, and it also offers leverage that can be used to influence settlement negotiations in your favor if that avenue best fits your needs and circumstances. I’m always willing to go to court when a trial offers my clients the best opportunity for a favorable resolution, and I take several cases all the way to trial every year.
