About Hector J.
Hector J. Lopez earned his J.D. from Universidad Santa Maria in 1996. He returned to the same university to complete an LL.M. in Tax Law in 2000. In 2002 he added an LL.M. in International Business Law from the University of Houston. Those degrees gave him training in both domestic and cross-border legal frameworks.
After completing his studies, Lopez built a practice that bridges two legal systems. He is licensed to practice in Venezuela and in Texas. That bi-jurisdictional footing has shaped the kinds of matters he handles and the clients he represents.
