Home / About Our Firm
Orihuela Attorneys is an international legal boutique advising companies, financial institutions, and investors on their most complex cross-border matters. We combine the substantive expertise and work quality of major international law firms with the senior-level attention, responsiveness, and cultural agility that only a specialized boutique can deliver. Our practice is led by dual-licensed attorneys who have worked at top-tier U.S. law firms and served in executive in-house and secondment roles with leading multinational corporations — giving us direct, firsthand understanding of what general counsel and management teams need from external legal advisors. We do not just advise; we have operated from inside the businesses we serve. We represent clients from the United States, Europe, Canada, Latin America, and Japan across a wide range of industries: Artificial Intelligence, technology, life sciences, media and communications, sports, entertainment, construction, oil and gas, mining, engineering, agriculture, consumer products, and financial services. Our practice spans corporate international transactions, OFAC and sanctions compliance, anti-money laundering, anti-bribery, corporate governance, internal investigations, and industry-specific work in mining, life sciences, and sports and media. The firm operates from Miami and New York and maintains active client relationships and on-the-ground presence across Latin America, Europe, and North America. We are bilingual in English and Spanish, and our attorneys hold legal qualifications in both common law and civil law jurisdictions — enabling seamless cross-border representation. Our work is consistently recognized by the world’s leading independent legal directories. We are ranked by Chambers & Partners under Corporate Compliance (2025 and 2026), recognized by Best Lawyers™ for Mining Law, and listed by Who’s Who Legal as a Global Leader in Mining. Our attorneys are frequent speakers and writers at international legal and compliance forums.
Every client engagement is treated as unique. We invest time to understand your business, your industry, and your risk environment before offering recommendations. Our solutions are practical, actionable, and calibrated to your organizational culture and objectives.
We serve most of our clients in a role equivalent to senior in-house counsel — available on an ongoing basis for strategic planning, day-to-day legal management, and crisis response. This embedded model means our advice is integrated with your business, not delivered from a distance.
Our attorneys operate fluently across legal systems, cultures, and jurisdictions. We have conducted work in Asia, Europe, Latin America, Canada, and the United States, and we maintain collaborative relationships with trusted local counsel in key jurisdictions worldwide.
Our firm’s reputation is built on results and on the trust of sophisticated international clients and co-counsel. We are proud to be consistently ranked among leading practitioners in our areas of focus.
