Biography

My legal career commenced with an honors degree from Universidad Escuela Libre de Derecho, a testament to my dedication to academic and professional distinction.

Additionally, my expertise in tax advisory has been further honed through a specialized program at Universidad Fundepos, positioning me as a formidable authority in the area.

Armed with this comprehensive educational arsenal, I established López & Valverde Abogados.
