Martínez Quintero Mendoza González Laguado & de la Rosa, formerly DLA Piper Martínez Beltrán until its May 2024 disassociation from the DLA Piper network, stands out for its robust procurement and regulatory expertise. The team acts for clients across the industry — including construction companies, service providers and concessionaires, among others — and demonstrates ‘understanding of the dynamics between public and private stakeholders’. The department is led jointly by Olga Lucía Ramírez, who is a former Vice Minister of Infrastructure at the Ministry of Transportation; and banking and finance partner Sebastián Lora. At associate level, seniors Carlos Guzmán (banking and project finance) and Laura Carmona (infrastructure, projects and public law) provide key support. Since publication, Lora has left the firm - effective as of January 2025.
