We are committed to keeping our clients and the general legal community up-to-date about the changing world of law and the Dominican Republic’s legal system, especially in light of global trends.

Pellerano & Herrera has the largest legal library in the country and we are recognized internationally for editing the Doing Business in the Dominican Republic Legal Guide, in Spanish, English, French, and Mandarin, which is distributed yearly to thousands of readers.

Our Executive Summaries on reforms and new and amended legislation, our bimonthly newsletters, and the Economic Law column published every Friday in the national circulation newspaper Diario Libre are some of the many ways we keep our clients and the Dominican legal and business communities updated.

Internationally, we also submit articles to renowned publications such as the South Florida Legal Guide and the Metropolitan Corporate Counsel on topics of interest to investors and in-house company lawyers with an interest in doing business in the Dominican Republic.

The firm also participates in renowned publications and surveys such as Getting the Deal Through, Doing Business in and Child & Youth Finance International, where we are listed as representatives for the Dominican Republic.
