Porzio, Bromberg & Newman of Morristown has opened a seventh office—this time in Puerto Rico, by hiring former Puerto Rico secretary of state and corporate attorney Luis Rivera-Marin.
The firm's Puerto Rico office in San Juan officially opened Oct. 7 and is intended to expand the reach of the firm and its Porzio Life Sciences subsidiary, which offers compliance and software services to members of that industry, said Vito Gagliardi Jr.
"The Puerto Rico office allows us to market all of our services in an area that we have not done a lot of business before," Gagliardi, managing partner of the Porzio law firm and president of the life sciences subsidiary and two other wholly owned subsidiaries, said in a phone call Wednesday. "We see tremendous opportunity for our life science capabilities, both with regard to legal work and regulatory work with our subsidiary Porzio Life Sciences. There are about 75 such companies in Puerto Rico."
