DALLAS - Californer -- Foreign Investment Watch (FIW) has again recognized Olga Torres, Founder and Managing Member of Torres Trade Law, PLLC, as a Top Advisor 2025. Foreign Investment Watch recognizes top advisors who provide advice and counsel concerning foreign investment and national security in the United States and abroad.

Ms. Torres has been an appointed member of the Defense Trade Advisory Group, advising the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Political-Military Affairs since 2012."

"I'm thrilled to once again be named to this prestigious list," comments Ms. Torres.

My expertise in export controls makes me extremely efficient and expedites the work performed for our clients who can count on me to effectively navigate both the CFIUS regulations and the export control laws that are now so important in the CFIUS analysis. I think my clients are appreciative of this skill set."
