PRACTICE AREAS

40+ years of institutional experience · Senior-level counsel · Discreet execution

Corporate & International Law

We advise corporations, investors, and private clients on complex corporate, commercial, and international matters, with an emphasis on high-value transactions, governance, litigation, and regulatory exposure. Our work frequently involves cross-border structures, institutional interaction, and asset-based risk, particularly in regulated or emerging markets.

Energy, Petroleum & Natural Resources

We advise international petroleum and energy companies, service providers, and investors on market entry, regulatory posture, and asset protection in connection with oil, gas, and natural resources operations. This practice is focused on high-value, sovereign-exposed projects, where legal strategy, compliance, and institutional engagement are critical to operational viability.

Aviation & Maritime Law | Asset Strategy

We advise owners, operators, investors, and family offices on high-value mobile assets, including private and corporate aircraft, yachts, and mega yachts, throughout their legal lifecycle.

Real Estate Law | High-Value Property Strategy

We advise property owners, investors, and developers on complex, high-value real estate matters, often involving ownership structures, cross-border exposure, or significant financial stakes.

Banking & Insurance

Escritorio Raymond Aguiar advises financial institutions, insurers, reinsurers, investors, and corporate clients on banking and insurance-related legal matters, particularly those involving regulatory frameworks, complex transactions, and high-value disputes.
Our Banking & Insurance practice is focused on matters where financial exposure, regulatory scrutiny, and institutional interaction require senior-level legal judgment and rigorous compliance analysis.

Government Relations & Regulatory Strategy

We advise clients on government-facing legal and regulatory matters, focusing on institutional engagement, administrative strategy, and procedural compliance.
Our approach is grounded in transparency, legality, and institutional rigor, informed by decades of experience navigating regulated environments.

Private Clients & Family Offices

We advise high-net-worth individuals and family offices on asset protection, governance, succession-related disputes, and cross-border legal risk, often involving substantial personal and corporate holdings.
This practice integrates corporate, energy, aviation, maritime, and real estate strategy into cohesive asset-based legal planning.

Investment Funds & Capital Deployment
