Frequently Asked Questions About Exequatur in Puerto Rico

1) Do I have to travel to Puerto Rico?

You don't need to travel, which saves you the cost of travel, lodging, and time. We handle the entire process remotely.

2) What documents do I need for the evaluation?

Generally, a copy of the judgment and basic information about the case are requested. The specific documents required depend on where the judgment was issued and the type of case.

3) Will the Court hear the original case again?

No. The exequatur requests that the Court of Puerto Rico recognize the judgment issued outside the island; it does not re-adjudicate the case.

4) Does the assessment guarantee that the court will recognize the judgment?

Yes. The evaluation determines whether we can handle the case and what requirements apply. Although the final decision rests with the court, we do everything we can to have the judgment recognized in Puerto Rico.
