At Izquierdo Law LLC, we combine legal experience with a deep understanding of Puerto Rico's business and tax landscape to help our clients protect their assets, reduce their tax burden, and build sustainable businesses.

Act 60 & Tax Incentives Law
Puerto Rico's Act No. 60-2019, as amended, offers some of the most competitive tax incentives available anywhere in the United States, including income tax rates as low as 1% (typically 4%), 100% exemption on dividends, and significant property and municipal tax exemptions. We guide individuals and businesses through every stage of the process, from evaluating eligibility and structuring your business correctly, to preparing and submitting your application, negotiating decree terms, and maintaining annual compliance. With over 100 clients served and a background that combines finance and law, we bring a level of strategic depth to Act 60 work that goes beyond legal paperwork.
Corporate Law
A properly structured business is the foundation of long-term success. We advise clients on entity formation, corporate governance, shareholder agreements, and day-to-day compliance with Puerto Rico's corporate regulations. Whether you are establishing a new entity to qualify for Act 60 benefits or restructuring an existing business, we ensure your corporate structure aligns with both your legal obligations and your financial goals.
Business Structural Planning
Choosing the right legal structure for your business has significant implications for your tax position, liability exposure, and future flexibility. We work with clients to evaluate and implement the most advantageous structure (whether a corporation, LLC, partnership, or other entity) with a particular focus on optimizing eligibility for Puerto Rico's incentive programs and minimizing unnecessary risk.
Contract Law
Sound contracts are essential to protecting your business interests. We draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements, including service contracts, operating agreements, joint ventures, lease agreements, and financing documents. Our approach ensures that every agreement is clear, enforceable, and aligned with your broader business strategy.
