Experience:

Ms. Rosa Campillo began her work as an associate of Russin, Vecchi & Heredia Bonetti in 1983, and became a partner in charge of the Department of Intellectual Property in 1992.

Ms. Campillo has developed a solid practice in intellectual property law, international law and related topics, which is why she is highly qualified to help local and foreign clients doing business in the Dominican Republic.

During her career, Ms. Rosa Campillo has been Legal Advisor of the Ministry of External Relations of the Dominican Republic (1962 – 1983) and has been a professor of International Law at the National University Pedro Henríquez Ureña (UNPHU), since 1975, and in several universities, such as: APEC, Pontificia Universidad Católica Madre y Maestra (PUCMM), Catholic University of Santo Domingo (UCSD) and School of the Chancellery of the Dominican Republic.

Recently, Ms. Campillo has been recommended as “Senior Statesperson” by Chambers and Partners, a world’s leading provider of legal research. Our clients are quick to point out to Chambers and Partners that Rosa Campillo Celado “was the pioneer for IP in the Dominican Republic.” She continues advise clients, with one source highlighting “her ability and enormous experience,” while another states: “We work with her because of her global vision.” She has also been recommended by Legal 500 Latin America as “Leading Individual” defined as true market leader in her sector.
