He is an attorney practicing in Atlanta. He has a TV program on our local Telemundo channel.
This is the first I've heard of him.
I looked up his bio (pretty impressive) and it states he is Dominican. He's in his thirties which causes me to wonder if he is possibly Freddy Veras Goico's son.
Here is his bio I copied it from his website. http://www.goicobolet.com/lawyers.php

He can't be his son because Freddy Beras Goico lastname is Beras.

I made some research:
They both had the same great-grandfather. Genaro Goico Cebollero (From Puerto Rico).

Their grandfathers were brothers and Freddy's mother and Hipolito's father were cousins.
