About Coralice
Coralice Diaz-Sampedro built her legal foundation around courtroom work and dispute resolution. She pursued advanced study after earning her law degree, then moved into multi-jurisdictional practice that spans trial and appellate forums.
Her formal legal education began at the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico School of Law, where she completed her J.D. She later returned to study litigation and appellate practice at The George Washington University Law School, completing an LL.M. in Litigation and Dispute Resolution.
Diaz-Sampedro is admitted to practice in several federal and state jurisdictions. Her admissions include the 11th Circuit and the 5th Circuit, as well as the District of Columbia and the state of Washington. She is also admitted to practice in Puerto Rico and before the U.S. Supreme Court. Those credentials reflect work that crosses district and circuit lines and often involves appellate filings.
Her training in litigation and dispute resolution informs the work she takes on. Courtroom procedure, briefing, and oral argument are frequent elements of cases she handles. The mix of district court and appellate admissions means she regularly moves between trial strategy and appeals practice. She has handled matters that require attention to federal procedure and the differing rules of the circuits where she is admitted.
Over the course of her career she has worked on matters that require coordination across jurisdictions. That can include preparing appellate briefs for circuit review, litigating in federal district courts, and presenting matters that reach the Supreme Court when necessary. Her practice reflects the intersections of local and federal law and the procedural demands of multi-jurisdiction litigation.
She is currently associated with Vasquez Law Office, PLLC. There she continues to handle litigation and appellate matters that draw on her academic background and federal admissions. She maintains a practice that centers on dispute resolution and appellate work at the firm.
