Established in 2003, Jiménez Peña is one of the largest international law firms in the Dominican Republic. We have veteran talent and all the necessary resources to handle any legal challenge that a local and global business community may face in the Dominican Republic.

The firm has unmatched experience in power generation, transmission, and distribution. The renewable energy sector has gone through a boom in the last few years in the Dominican Republic and our firm has been at the forefront, winning major instructions in this space. We have still been involved in notable mandates for the likes of United Renewable Energy, Acciona and Total.

JP routinely represents major international sponsors and lenders in the development and financing of solar and wind power projects. Our attorneys have also advised on important M&As in this sector, including foreign investment mandates involving the acquisition of project companies by energy majors. Furthermore, in the traditional energy sphere, we have advised on the acquisition as well as the financing of LNG pipelines and regasification plants.

We enjoy an excellent relationship with energy regulators which allows us to navigate the rapidly developing alternative energy sector, including wind, solar, and biomass projects. We are renowned for our stellar handling of local due diligence processes, structuring of the guarantees, and negotiating project agreements. The team excels in contract negotiations with the Dominican State, obtaining modifications in regulatory proposals and winning approval for initiatives that protect the interests of clients at administrative and congressional levels.
