Joseph Rome, a partner at Sequor Law, focuses his practice on international arbitration and litigation, judgment and arbitral award collection, asset recovery, corruption and proceeds of crime recovery, and financial fraud.
Prior to joining Sequor Law, Joseph was an “A” level prosecutor for the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office focusing primarily on attempted murders, gun crimes, and serious sexual assaults from the investigation stage through trial. He was also a member of the Police Accountability and Integrity Task Force, Hate Crimes Unit, and Traffic Homicide Unit.
Joseph previously worked for two large, international law firms in New York and Miami. He represented international corporations and high-net-worth individuals in a broad range of high-stakes litigation and arbitration matters.
Joseph earned his Juris Doctorate from New York University School of Law. During law school, he was a Jessup International Moot Court member, an editor of the Journal of International Law & Politics, and did externships with both the Orleans Public Defenders and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. He also did a summer fellowship at the United Nations International Law Commission in Geneva, where he drafted speeches and statements for the Japanese representative.
