Continental PLLC is pleased to welcome four accomplished attorneys to its Miami and Washington D.C. offices, expanding the firm’s white-collar, international arbitration, and campaign finance practices.
The law firm, founded by partners Carlos Trujillo, Jesus M. Suarez, and John Arrastia, Jr. attributes its growth in Washington D.C. to increased client demand since President Trump’s inauguration in January.
“The link between Florida and Washington D.C. is stronger than ever,” said Trujillo. “President Trump is the first Floridian elected President, and as a result, our Washington D.C. and Florida based lawyers are well positioned to deliver exceptional client outcomes.”
“With the addition of these outstanding attorneys, we are significantly broadening our capabilities in Washington D.C. and beyond,” said Suarez. “They each bring exceptional skill sets that will enhance our litigation and political practices, especially for clients navigating today’s unique legal and policy challenges.”
