About

ECIJA is a leading Ibero-American law firm with offices in Spain, Portugal, Chile, Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras, Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Guatemala, Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, El Salvador and Peru. The firm brings together a multidisciplinary team of over 1,400 professionals with extensive experience across a wide range of practice areas, combining deep local knowledge with a strong international perspective.

ECIJA is a client-focused firm that combines the agility and personalized service of a high-end boutique with the capabilities and reach of a full-service international firm. Its multidisciplinary structure enables it to advise clients across multiple jurisdictions, industries and regulatory environments, particularly in complex cross-border matters.

The firm offers a fully integrated platform across the Ibero-American market. Since 2019, ECIJA has undergone significant regional expansion through strategic mergers, consolidating its position as one of the leading law firms in Latin America. Currently, the firm operates through 37 offices in 18 countries and more than 220 partners.

In addition, ECIJA entered into a strategic alliance with Grandall Law Firm, one of the largest law firms in China, creating a joint platform with more than 3,500 lawyers and 54 offices across Iberia, Latin America and Asia. This positions ECIJA among the most significant international legal networks in terms of geographic reach and professional capacity.

The Santo Domingo office of ECIJA represents the firm’s local presence in the Dominican Republic and has its roots in DVMS – Dejarden Valenzuela Molina & Salcedo, a firm founded in 2014 that developed a leading transactional and litigation practice in the Dominican market prior to integrating into ECIJA in 2018. The office is part of ECIJA’s broader Ibero-American platform and reflects the firm’s specialization in technology, digital transformation and corporate advisory services.

The firm provides comprehensive services in corporate and transactional law, dispute resolution, labor and employment, banking and finance, real estate, energy and tourism, as well as a strong technology and regulatory practice that has become one of its key regional differentiators.

Its profile reflects a consistent track record in complex, cross-border and high-value matters. The firm is also a signatory of the Cyrus R. Vance Center Pro Bono Declaration for the Americas.
