Bufete Lugo Lovatón is an intellectual property boutique based in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, with core strengths in trademark prosecution, copyright, advertising law, and anti-counterfeiting actions. The firm advises domestic and international clients across regulated industries including pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, textiles, cosmetics, and advertising agencies, and operates a network for Caribbean trademark services.

The practice is led by managing partner Zaida E. Lugo and partner José Alejandro Santana, both of whom are active in major IP associations and recognised by market directories for contentious and non-contentious IP work. The team has been cited for strong responsiveness, strategic litigation and prosecution capabilities, and practical guidance on advertising and unfair competition matters.

Clients engage the firm for focused, regional brand-protection strategies and commercial IP counselling that combine litigation-readiness with regulatory and transactional support. The firm emphasises timely communication, bilingual service when required, and collaborative relationships with overseas associates to secure and enforce rights across the Caribbean.
