[ Corporate & Securities Attorneys ]
Attorney John Tishler, partner at Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton, LLP, has been practicing corporate and securities law for more than 20 years. In his time as a corporate attorney, John has studied, practiced and mastered several types of uncommon distinctions and strategies, equipping himself with a variety of different perspectives that he brings to every case that comes across his desk.
He has experience representing clients in various areas, including international and domestic capital markets, corporate governance, finance and restructuring, technology, mergers and acquisitions, as well as international exchange issuers on debt offerings, capital structures and equity. He works with each and every one of his clients, no matter what their background, to design and negotiate the best possible economic business strategies in order to achieve all of their goals with uncommon effectiveness.
John’ s colleagues turn to him and his wide range of expertise when they need assistance tackling a problem. John is a quick learner— it was only a little over a year ago that he was first presented with an EB-5 case. Within just the last 15 months he has established himself as a leader and expert in the field and has been making a material difference in the structuring and handling of EB-5 cases.
John writes about the EB-5 investment program, uncommon interpretations and approaches to transactional

He currently also lectures on corporate law, executive compensation and strategic partnering and acts as an adjunct professor at the University Of San Diego School Of Law.
Osvaldo Torres may be newer to the field of EB-5 work, but that does not mean his profile is any less impressive. Ozzie became involved with EB-5 about three to four years ago, building upon over two decades of corporate, securities and media law experience. Ozzie’ s practice, Torres Law P. A. is based in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
Years of corporate and securities law experience gives Ozzie the expertise to consult on a wide variety of EB-5 issues, though he centers his practice on regional centers. He works mainly on the project side, vetting projects for clients, many of which are real estate based. Ozzie has recently been involved in a $ 90 million hotel project in Dallas that was funded by nearly 100 Chinese investors.
Seeing projects built from the ground up is rewarding for Ozzie, and he has been involved in a wide variety of projects, including multi-family residences, senior independent living complexes, and restaurants, among others. In the past, Ozzie served as Senior Vice President and General Counsel for HBO Latin America and Telemundo Group, Inc. He is currently Secretary of the Weston Bar Association and a member of the American Bar Association Corporate Governance Committee.
Ozzie considers himself, above all, a deal lawyer and his principal goal is to see deals successfully go through. In doing this, he does not ignore potential issues, but rather recognizes

problems and solves them. When he is not working, Ozzie takes advantage of sunny Florida and enjoys golf and deepsea fishing.
