Domestic and international banks and SOFOMES feature heavily on its client roster. Practice co-head Diego Martinez, who is experienced in banking and securities financings, is hailed as ‘an expert in his field’; the ‘extraordinary’ Edgar Romo also co-leads, and focuses on transactional finance matters, namely those involving the energy and hospitality sectors.
