Advisory firm

Consulting & Legal advisory for complex matters.

When a board or general counsel instructs the firm, the service is named, the team is led, and the solution is written so it can be defended.

Prepared before it is discussed.

Two instructions. The same standard.

How the work is taken

Instructed by the board, by counsel, or by the country lead.

Where an industrial does not yet have the place, the firm represents it in Washington, on the mainland, and in Puerto Rico. The principal, a lawyer, leads the counsel the matter requires. The solution is written so a board can defend it.

  1. 1

    Conflict, then a letter

    The principal is named. The perimeter is written. Substance begins only after conflicts are clear.

  2. 2

    A reading of the place

    Authorities and instruments — foreign-trade zone, port, airport, incentive — and whether the course is available.

  3. 3

    A written opinion

    The course the firm would recommend, and the fact that would change it. Introductions only where the firm can stand behind them.

Jurisdiction note

Eight to twelve pages. Authorities, instruments, the conditions around a decision, and a recommendation to proceed, pause, or decline. Usually within two weeks of instructions, once conflicts are clear.

  • Senior representation in Washington, the mainland, and Puerto Rico
  • Beside your counsel, not instead of them
  • A solution a board can defend

Standing

RMiller Consulting Global Advisors LLC is a private advisory practice, in continuous operation for more than a decade, with desks in San Juan, New York, and Jacksonville. Wilfredo Reyes is the principal and the person authorized to act for the firm. The firm is not a public body, and it is not owned or controlled by a government.

  • The work is counsel: legal advisory, market entry, government affairs, trade instruments, and industrial supply. The firm does not repair ships, execute works, or present itself as a contractor.
  • Client relationships are not published. A company named here is named because the fact is already public biography or public service.
  • Mr. Reyes is not in public office. Government service on this page is completed service.
  • Nothing of value is offered, or requested, to obtain a meeting, a permit, or a decision.
  • Conflicts are cleared before substance. Where or when a filing or an appearance is required, partner legal colleagues may lead, according to their subject-matter expertise, and on a case-by-case basis.
  • The team is led for the matter. It is not handed to professionals the firm does not direct.

The public record

The record

Biography and public service.

01

Trade architecture

A foreign-trade-zone airport, designed as an instrument

As Assistant Secretary at the Puerto Rico Department of Economic Development and Commerce, he secured the first federal Foreign-Trade Zone designation for an airport, at Rafael Hernández in Aguadilla. That instrument enabled Lufthansa Technik to establish its largest U.S.-based maintenance, repair, and overhaul operation, associated with well over 600 jobs.

02

A global operator

IKEA’s Caribbean position, negotiated

He led the negotiations that established IKEA stores in Puerto Rico and consolidated the Swedish retailer’s Caribbean distribution, logistics, and dispatch center in Bayamón — on the order of 800 jobs and well over $150 million of investment.

03

Since 2015

The technology and innovation campus in Bayamón

In 2015 he created the technology and innovation campus in Bayamón, Puerto Rico’s second-largest city, by repurposing a municipal facility, and he carried its expansion from there. The campus — Engine-4 — grew into the island’s principal applied-technology center: its largest mixed-use floor for firms and builders, T-Mobile’s first 5G and NB-IoT open innovation laboratory in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and laboratories and flight projects tied to NASA.

04

Since 2025

Counsel on U.S. maritime dominance

In January 2025 he was engaged by officials of the National Security Council and the Office of Management and Budget, at the Executive Office of the President, to advise on the United States Maritime Dominance pledge — the sea lane treated as the main artery of the critical-supply chain.

05

Investment and employment

More than $1 billion, and thousands of jobs

Across the mandates and public projects he has directed, the record accounts for more than $1 billion in investment and thousands of jobs, with partnerships across the United States, Europe, Latin America, and Southeast Asia.

Method

Execution

  1. I

    Preparation

    Who decides, what is already known, and what has already been attempted.

  2. II

    The written view

    Options, the one we would take, and the fact that would change it.

    Only what we will stand behind

    Authorities, operators, and counsel. No introduction we would not repeat in the room.

  4. IV

    The firm remains

    If the mandate widens, the team is adjusted. The firm does not leave the matter.

This is a principal advisory practice. Mr. Reyes is a lawyer by formation. Where or when a filing or an appearance is required, partner legal colleagues may lead, according to their subject-matter expertise, and on a case-by-case basis.

First contact

The shape of the question. The substance stays on a call.

Nothing you type here is transmitted. The page composes a brief you can take to the principal. Deal terms, pricing, and non-public strategy do not belong in it.

Held on this page only.
