We already knew Jen was Super! Here’s proof

Diaz Trade Law is proud to announce that our very own expert customs and international attorney Jennifer Diaz has been recognized as a 2019 Super Lawyer. This is Diaz’s 7^th consecutive Super Lawyer honor. From 2012 to 2016 she continuously earned the “Rising Star” distinction and has yet to miss a “Super Lawyer” award since 2017.

According to its website, Super Lawyers distinguishes the outstanding service of lawyers from over 70 fields of practice, and awards recipients who embody an extraordinary level of peer recognition and respect, as well as personal success.

The selection process reviews over twelve areas of recognition, including nominations and evaluations from peers, as well as independent research conducted by a third-party. Although a multiplicity of lawyers may potentially qualify, Super Lawyers only awards the top 5% of total lawyers in a given state, effectively strengthening the already rigorous matriculation process.

This prestigious award not only signifies a patented level of respect amongst one’s peers but due to the independent research, serves to highlight the unparalleled dynamics of each awarded lawyer.

UPDATE: Non-Commercial Airplanes and Cruise Ships on Temporary Sojourn are Now Prohibited To Travel To Cuba.

Following President Obama’s historical break in precedent, easing restrictions on Cuba in 2016, President Trump now seeks to deprive the Communist regime of revenue from American citizens.

President Trump, not wanting the US to be complicit in the oppression and subjugation of Cubans, has decided to roll back the newly established relationship and directed the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) to draft a final rule limiting the types of aircraft that are authorized to fly to Cuba and the types of vessels that are authorized to sail to Cuba on temporary sojourn. This change is likely to be a result of the exponential growth of the island’s economy, coupled with the lack of improvement in overall quality of life for its citizens.
