I engaged Rubén Darío Gómez Arnaiz at Ramos, Ripoll & Schuster Abogados to represent my company in a challenging international supply contract dispute. From our initial consultation at their Albuquerque office, it was clear he possessed a sophisticated understanding of cross-border commercial conflicts. His recognition in International Arbitration by Best Lawyers was evident in his strategic approach; he meticulously prepared our case, outlining the nuances of the arbitration clause and potential mediation pathways with impressive clarity. He successfully guided us through a mediation process that avoided a lengthy and costly international arbitration, securing a settlement that protected our business interests entirely. While I was thoroughly satisfied with the outcome and his expertise, there were occasional periods where communication response times lagged slightly, likely due to his caseload. That minor point aside, Rubén Darío is a sharp, knowledgeable attorney. His dual recognition in both Arbitration and Mediation proved invaluable, as he leveraged both skill sets to our advantage. I would confidently recommend his services to any business facing a complex contractual disagreement, especially one with an international dimension.
