Born in Santiago, Chile, Gus moved with his family to South Florida at the age of seven. Eventually settling in Coral Springs, Gus grew up playing soccer with many of South Florida’s elite soccer clubs. After earning the Sun-Sentinel’s Broward County Player of the Year honors as a senior at Coral Springs High, Gus received a full scholarship to play soccer at Nova Southeastern University.

At NSU, Gus led his team to multiple conference titles and served as a 3 year captain. Yet, more importantly, Gus discovered a passion for the law at NSU’s pre-law program, graduating with honors in 1997. Gus also proudly served as sports editor of the campus newspaper, feeding his insatiable passion for sports.

Gus then continued his legal education at the University of Florida’s Levin College of Law. After serving as an editor of the invitation-only Florida Law Review and graduating with honors in 2001, Gus embarked on his legal career by working for two of Florida’s oldest and largest law firms.

First, at Carlton Fields, P.A., Gus was a member of the firm’s Toxic Torts and Products Liability Practice Group where he worked on various “bet the company” type cases for several Fortune 100 companies. Some of these matters included tobacco litigation, vehicle-rollover litigation, pharmaceutical class actions, and bad faith insurance litigation.

Then, at Holland & Knight, LLP, Gus joined the firm’s Litigation Practice Group where he handled a wide-range of complex commercial litigation matters, including construction defect cases, property insurance litigation, and intellectual property litigation.

In 2009, Gus teamed up with a childhood friend and founded Salomon Bravo, PL. Serving as head of the small firm’s civil practice enabled Gus to work almost exclusively with small business owners and learn first-hand how their needs differ and, at times, mirror those of large companies. Maintaining the big firm quality without sacrificing the small firm value allowed Gus to successfully defend small business owners in various areas, including contract disputes, shareholder disputes, labor and employment, trademark infringement, securities litigation, and consumer claims.

Eventually, in 2013, Gus furthered his entrepreneurial spirit and founded Bravo Law with the simple goal of continuing to find better ways to serve his South Florida small business and individual clients.
