Galicia Abogados S.C.

As one of the best recognised Mexican full-service firms, Galicia Abogados S.C. is a natural destination for a host of foreign and multinational clients needing assistance navigating the various regulations and trade agreements relevant to trade matters involving Mexican law. One area of notable activity, recently, has been acting for clients in audits by the Mexican tax authorities with respect to VAT assessments. Disputes resulting from international trade are an undoubted strength of the team, although it also has a robust advisory offering and cross-border M&A support capability. Practice co-head Mario Valencia has recently helped bolster the firm’s offering on nearshoring matters, paying frequent visits to the firm’s Monterrey office to facilitate this. Fellow co-lead Daniel Amézquita is a litigator well versed in administrative and constitutional challenges to the stances taken by government agencies and entities. Senior associate Andrés Muñiz Cordova is a mainstay for counsel on import and export regulations, with Fernando Rodríguez and Sheidel Francioli further associate-level contacts to note.
