Pirillo Law LLC is a full-service boutique law firm based in San Juan, Puerto Rico. We are a team of attorneys with hands-on experience and knowledge in laws and regulatory processes that govern the financial and securities industry.  Thus, we are aware of the necessity for effective risk management and aim to provide thoughtful response to client situations.

We speak business. Our Firm offers legal services specialized in the financial industry to banking institutions, international financial entities, investment companies, broker-dealer firms, and investment advisers, among others, under state and federal laws and regulations.  Specifically, we have been litigating cases, advising clients, and closely tracking developments in the changing financial industry regulatory landscape.

Banking & Securities

Our banking and securities attorneys regularly advise on transactional matters (i.e. formation, financing, negotiating and documenting transactions, joint ventures and other relationships); regulatory matters (i.e. advise on implementation of initiatives in compliance with laws and regulations, capital raising and offering of securities in compliance with laws and regulations) and enforcement matters (i.e. examinations, investigations, arbitration, litigation) under Puerto Rico and federal laws affecting banks, international financial entities, securities firms, investment advisers, investment funds, nonbank lenders, insurance companies and other financial services firms.

Compliance

Our compliance attorneys have hands-on experience in working with different types of financial institutions in regulatory, compliance and ethics issues.  We advise clients on implementation of initiatives in compliance with laws and regulations, including on topics of anti-money laundering, economic sanctions, data protection, and consumer protection regulations, among others.  We frequently draft policies, procedures and disclosure documents, working with the clients based on their internal risk appetites and sensitivities, in order to deliver relevant advise and warn of the legal risks involved in proposed practices.  Our clients include local and cross-border banks, international financial entities, investment advisers, private funds, broker-dealers, custodian banks, among others.

Litigation

We represent banks and financial institutions, broker-dealers, investment companies, trust companies, publicly held companies, corporations and individuals in a wide array of commercial litigation matters before Puerto Rico and US Federal courts, administrative agencies, self-regulatory organizations, and in Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) proceedings.

Our litigation attorneys have significant experience in business disputes ranging from corporate controversies, shareholder disputes and employment matters to complex contract, trust & estates, construction, consumer finance, foreclosures and real estate. Our team also frequently advises companies and their boards of directors in corporate governance issues and shareholder relation matters.

Tax Incentives

Our Firm has extensively advised our clients in connection with the new Puerto Rico Incentives Code, Act No. 60 of July 1, 2019, which grouped the requirements to qualify for tax benefits and credits, eligibility requirements, and grant application process for manufacturing, export services, individual investors, film, energy, tourism, international financial entities, international insurance companies, among others. Our attorneys have extensive knowledge and experience working with the majority of Puerto Rico’s tax credit and tax incentives programs.
