A route has more than one stop.
A founder abroad forms a U.S. company, gets the visa to run it, brings the family, and years later applies for citizenship. Someone moves here first, starts a company later, then brings the family. A local founder forms the company, raises a first round, and one day needs a lawyer on call.
You can work with me on one stop or the whole route.
Where are you starting?
The fee comes before the work.
Most matters have a published flat fee. You get the scope and the fee in writing before anything starts, and the fee doesn't change with drafts or negotiation rounds.

Sixteen years on every side of the table.
Since 2010, Iván Ríos Mena has advised startups, scaleups, established companies, small businesses, and immigrants. He has done it from inside companies, from inside Puerto Rico's government as Under Secretary of Economic Development, from the accelerator he co-founded, Parallel18, and for investors as their counsel in the rounds they led. Day-to-day questions, investment rounds, and large transactions.
He works in English and Spanish, and he quotes every matter before it starts.
When a matter needs a specialist, I have one to call.
“We are a startup getting ready to do a seed round and needed to get our legal house in order. To be honest I was a little overwhelmed about everything we needed to do. So the part I appreciated most about working with rios|mena law was how Ivan took the time to personally talk to me through the entire process and everything that needed to get done. The best part being how he and his team took care of everything from beginning to end. Even helping us execute the signatures of all the parties involved to officiate all the documents. Delivering to us a shared folder with every single document fully executed and organized. HUGE weight off my shoulders! Thanks again for such amazing work.”
“Ivan is a lawyer's lawyer — the person you count on to handle every detail, including the things you don't even know you should be asking about. He's consistently one step ahead, both in the law itself and in applying technology to deliver faster, smarter, and more reliable service. Working with him over the years — personally and through various portfolio companies — has been a masterclass in what true professionalism and foresight look like.”
“Our experience with Ríos Mena Law and Attorney Iván Ríos Mena has been outstanding. Their guidance was crucial during the early stages of PrensaAbierta.com, helping us establish a solid foundation for the business's growth. Iván is distinguished by his professionalism, extensive knowledge, availability, and ability to explain complex matters clearly and practically. More than just a lawyer, he has been a true strategic partner during a pivotal time for our company. We recommend him without reservation.”
“Iván is one of the few lawyers who really understand the tech startup eco-system and who explain things in "arroz y habichuelas". He is truly an asset to any business in PR.”
“Iván has been a great ally for our business. He's approachable, professional, and always finds a clear and practical way to resolve things. It's reassuring to have someone like him on your side. Highly recommended.”
