MIAMI — Rivero Mestre announces that the firm has been recognized by Chambers & Partners in the 2021 edition of Chambers USA as a top-ranked firm in the category Litigation: General Commercial: The Elite in Florida. Chambers also recognized partners Andrés Rivero, Jorge A. Mestre, and Amanda McGovern for General Commercial Litigation.

McGovern is recognized as a top tier “Band 1” litigator. A commentator noted that “she is incredibly thorough and will know every detail of the case from the most minute fact to the most important point.” It bears noting that Amanda is one of the highest-ranked women litigators in the state of Florida.

Rivero has been recognized by Chambers since 2014. He too is ranked a “Band 1” litigator. One commentator states, “He has a great, comforting demeanor, which camouflages his fierce trial skills.”

Mestre has also been recognized by Chambers for the past seven years. According to a knowledgeable source, “one of his strengths is articulating complex legal issues in a common-sense way.” Another says “he’s detail-oriented and one of the hardest-working lawyers I know.”

According to Chambers USA’s referee interviews, even Rivero Mestre opposing counsel praises them stating “they are very capable and competent opposing counsel. They are professional and practice with integrity and excellence.”

Chambers USA annually ranks the work of leading U.S.-based law firms and their attorneys in different practice areas. Selection to these rankings are based on a thorough “assessment of a firm’s work and opinions from external market sources, with an emphasis on client feedback” that demonstrates “sustained excellence.”
