MIAMI — Jorge A. Mestre has been re-appointed by the President of the ABA to serve on the American Bar Association Commission on Hispanic Legal Rights and Responsibilities. The Commission works to develop initiatives, support research, and educate lawyers on serving and addressing the key legal challenges facing the Latino community in the United States.

The Commission achieved a significant accomplishment last year with a series of programs based on its report, “Latinos in the United States: Overcoming Legal Obstacles, Engaging in Civic Life.” At the 2024 ABA Annual Meeting in Chicago, Jorge joined fellow panelists to discuss the report, urging legal professionals to expand equal opportunity, noting that while Hispanics comprise nearly 20% of the U.S. population, they represent only 6% of the legal profession.

Jorge A. Mestre engages exclusively in commercial litigation practice and is Board Certified in International Litigation and Arbitration by The Florida Bar. He has litigated domestic and international arbitration matters in both English and Spanish.

MIAMI — Rivero Mestre announced today that it has secured a ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit to proceed with a lawsuit against American Airlines under Title III of the Helms-Burton Act.

The lawsuit, brought by José López Regueiro, alleges that American Airlines trafficked José Martí International Airport in Havana—a property seized from the plaintiff’s family by the Cuban government in 1959—by operating flights in and out of the airport since 1991. The Eleventh Circuit panel unanimously reversed the district court’s dismissal of the case, holding that the Helms-Burton Act does not require the plaintiff to have been a U.S. citizen at the time the property was confiscated or when he acquired his interest.

“We are very gratified that the Eleventh Circuit has correctly adopted our arguments and reopened Mr. López Regueiro’s case against American Airlines for its exploitative trafficking in the Havana airport, which was stolen from Mr. López Regueiro’s family,” Andrés Rivero said. “We will continue to pursue traffickers like American Airlines and Expedia to stop and punish their shameful support for the repressive communist regime in Cuba.”

This comes just months after Rivero Mestre secured a landmark result with nearly $120 million in verdicts in the first-ever Helms-Burton jury trial.
