The Cuban American Bar Association (CABA) is pleased to announce that Amanda L. Fernandez has been formally installed as its new president. She will be officially sworn in at CABA’s 51st annual installation gala on Saturday, February 8, at the Intercontinental Hotel in downtown Miami.
The gala raises funds for both CABA Foundation and CABA Pro Bono Legal Services. “This year’s theme ‘El Próximo Paso,’ or The Next Step, represents CABA’s forward-looking vision,” said Fernandez. “Attendees can reflect on their journey, celebrate their milestones, and envision the future, as they continue to break barriers and set new standards of excellence.”
Fernandez currently serves as managing partner of Rivero Mestre and focuses her practice on complex business matters, securities litigation, and cross-border disputes.
She has been a board member of CABA since 2017 and has served in various positions including vice president and treasurer. She previously served as board president of CABA Pro Bono Legal Services, which offers free legal services to low-income Florida residents.
She is also active in The Florida Bar Business Law Section and is a past chair of the Business Litigation Committee and chair of the Uniform Commercial Real Estate Receivership Act Task Force. Fernandez is also a member of Our Lady of Lourdes Academy’s (OLLA) Law Alumni Association and has served as a coach for OLLA’s mock trial team.
Most recently, Fernandez was recognized in Lawdragon’s 500 Leading Litigators in America Guide for 2025. Other recognitions include: Florida Trend Legal Elite’s 2024 edition of NOTABLE Managing Partners; ranked in Benchmark Litigation as a “Future Star” in Florida, 2024-2025; and recognized by the Daily Business Review’s Florida Legal Awards as an On the Rise honoree for 2023. In addition, she was named to Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch for Commercial Litigation, 2023-2025; Florida Super Lawyers Rising Star, 2018-2024; and South Florida Business & Wealth Magazine’s Up & Comer Award, 2019, 2022.
