MPA LAW successfully represented an Argentinian national in a high-net-worth international divorce matter, seeking critical financial information located in the United States. Our client suspected that substantial assets were being concealed in U.S. financial institutions. In response, MPA LAW swiftly filed petitions for discovery in both the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, Miami Division.
In under 24 hours from filing in the Southern District of New York before the Honorable Lewis J. Liman, and within 28 days of filing in the Southern District of Florida before the Honorable Jose E. Martinez, MPA LAW secured court orders granting all requested subpoenas. These authorizations empowered our client to obtain records from banks, brokerage firms, individuals, and title agents.
