‘Each individual lawyer at Galicia produces results and this generates advantages and benefits across the range of practices, specialisations and negotiation capabilities. The best description of the results is that I systematically call them for everything and they always resolve the issue well.’

‘They combine competence with honesty, which is rare. Special mention to Cecila Azar and Iván Valdespino.’

‘The litigation teams must have experts on the issues that are the subject of controversy, this will allow the strategy and the correct use of the laws to result in a positive outcome. Additionally, their way of operating and follow-up helps to achieve favourable results in any contest.’

‘Rodrigo Zamora stands out at this office.’

‘The team is diverse, having a combination of lawyers with extensive experience supported by young lawyers but who have received specific training related to litigation and arbitration at the most important universities in the world. Exceptional facilities with meeting rooms ready to even hold arbitration hearings, with adequate technology to carry out their activities.’

‘Rodrigo Zamora is a benchmark in the field due to his great capacity and knowledge, he establishes clear strategies that permeate the rest of the team, including his clients, a born questioner and exceptional communication and strategy skills.‘

‘Santiago Oñate is a young lawyer with a transcendental academic training, but who also implements it relentlessly in the defence of his clients, his argumentation is vertical and clear. His work is highly reliable and outstanding, in addition to being an exceptional interrogator.’

‘They get into the matter a lot, they get involved with the experts for expert evidence, they always have everything super fresh.’

‘The best possible human treatment. The team shows true professionalism and excellent communication.’

‘Clear strategies with serious considerations regarding the risks they entail.’

‘It is a firm specialised in complex litigation and arbitration. Their multidisciplinary team sets them apart from other dispute law firms by analysing issues from various contentious perspectives, with a deeply technical focus, but without leaving aside the practical considerations necessary to obtain favourable results for the interests of the companies they represent. Their strong team composition is also an important differentiator. The team includes partners with a lot of experience in litigation, as well as junior partners and junior associates who are handling the cases. Junior and senior lawyers are of various profiles, people with studies in the best universities, all bilingual, all trained in MIBP or hired laterally from other important litigation firms in the market. I also know that they have an associate exchange system, which allows almost all associates with a master’s degree to have work experience outside of Mexico. As an in-house lawyer, we like their expertise in various contentious matters, their reaction to requests for reports, the service, and the empathy they seek to generate with their clients.’

‘I work directly with Rodrigo Buj García and Juan José Iturbe, both founding partners of the firm. They assist us in disputes against banks and in another dispute against a leading company in the mining and metals sector. Both partners complement each other very well due to their experience and procedural technique to litigate in local and federal courts (Juan Iturbe), as well as their sharpness in handling matters and their litigation strategy (Rodrigo Buj).’

‘I believe that what makes them unique is that they are a boutique specialised in litigation and arbitration, which makes them focus on their practice, but with a corporate and transactional approach, since most of their lawyers have knowledge of these areas from their past experience, which helps them understand the problem in a holistic way so they can fully prepare arguments for the litigation.’

‘We admire their background in other legal specialties such as corporate law and the personalised customer service.’

‘The Malpica team is a highly-qualified team that understands the needs of the business, always looking for practical solutions and aware of the needs of companies and avant-garde. It seeks creative solutions that differ from other law firms and also has a new collections area that is totally innovative for a top tier law firm like them, because it allows competitive prices while having a high quality service. They are an ally of their clients.’

‘They are highly qualified lawyers who seek practical and creative solutions, always demonstrating very high values, which distinguish them in the market. All of them have a friendly manner, responding with rapidity and excellent disposition. I highlight Carlos Malpica, with whom it is a delight to work due to his professionalism, values and practical solutions. And also Rolando Zarate, who has a lot of technical knowledge and availability to support the client. Overall its a high quality service that adds value to its customers.’

‘Omar Guerrero and his team give us excellent service in every way. First of all, they have a lot of knowledge in the matter, they are always very informed of the trends in legal and technological matters, they are also coordinated and have excellent service and customer service.’

‘Omar Guerrero and Juan Arturo Dueñas are highly reliable lawyers, they know their subject matter, and they provide excellent service and customer care.’

‘The team has to know the company’s operation to be able to advise on risks and look for areas of opportunity and improvement. The HL team does a good job in the above, they ask the right questions and have the correct involvement in the operation. Hogan has a strong team in litigation, above all they are very clear in their explanations. They are part of the company’s global billing program and very accessible when we request to allocate the amounts of the matters.’

‘Juan Arturo Dueñas and Fernanda Serrano are the lawyers who handle the litigation relationship with us. They are very punctual in providing case updates and are very clear in their explanations.’

‘The Hogan Lovells Litigation team has provided me with a high quality service. They are always available to meet requirements and support in a very professional manner, providing very comprehensive knowledge in various branches of law. They have highly trained staff in the use of technological tools to carry out processes such as discovery, among others.’

‘They are always available to serve their clients and establish a very close relationship, almost a friendship with their clients. They are trusted advisors, always aware of their clients’ issues. They establish strong working ties and trust with their clients, which constitutes a differentiating factor compared to other large law firms.’

‘They are a technically very solvent team with a very practical approach to the issues that are presented to them. This solvency allows them to simplify the challenges and design strategies appropriate to the specific case. Additionally, they have a practice that covers different specialty areas, because just as they handle litigation, they also handle arbitration.’

‘The two partners I work with are Diego Sierra and Adrián Magallanes. With the first I have seen more litigation issues, while with the second I have seen more arbitration issues, however, any of them is very solvent in any of the mentioned areas. In addition, Diego Sierra is extremely solvent in matters of insolvency and structures, which is why this practice is currently focused on him as regards the firm. They are two lawyers with experience and great dedication.’

‘Dedication to the various aspects of current affairs and legal complexity.’

‘We recommend Ismael Reyes Retana and Fernando García.’

‘My opinion is that the teamwork in the firm stands out, I have seen very good coordination within and with external actors for the service we receive. The service is excellent.’

‘Ability to study and deepen the topics, proposed innovative solutions in the case of Federico Martens. Knowledge and detailed understanding of the energy sector.’

‘A boutique office with personalised attention. All team members have an excellent level of legal insight and knowledge of judicial processes. I also highlight their involvement in technology issues.’

‘It seems to me that the lobbying work they do with judges, secretaries, and judicial teams is the added value they have given us, they do an excellent job and that often leads you to win lawsuits.’

‘Martens provides very high quality and sophisticated legal advice for disputes, but taking into account strategic down to earth and practical considerations.’

‘Federico Martens is highly experienced despite his young age and always available and clear in his advice.’

‘José Covarrubias knows contentious matters and attends us correctly.’

‘Jose Covarrubias has very good knowledge regarding the procedural framework to attend trials.’

‘Pérez Correa González has many strengths to work with. For instance, they are very diligent, good at communications, very professional with their work. I have worked with different legal firms and I would say they are the no.1 team that I have ever worked with. In regards to my last case in Mexico, I believe that we would not have obtained the same favorable result if we did not work with them.’

‘I worked with José Covarrubias Azuela mostly and he is the key litigation partner in PCG. Despite a time difference, he was always there to communicate with us and gave us prompt feedback and work resulta at all times. His knowledge of the case was exceptional and definitely, and he is the lawyer I could recommend to others (I have recommended him to my colleague from another division too). I am confident to recommend him to anyone and they will not be disappointed with Jose’s work.’

‘What in my experience has made Bufete Asali’s dispute resolution practice one of the benchmarks in complex cases, is its responsiveness, its depth of analysis and the closeness of partners to discuss strategies and adjust them quickly.’

‘They make you feel cared for and demonstrate mastery of the matters entrusted to them. I would like to list everyone, but Juan Pablo Rodríguez, Manuel García Pimentel, Luis Fabara, Alina Aguilar and Luis Asali stand out.’

‘A team of professionals with various specialties that complement each other well.’

‘Accessible professionals willing to get involved and delve into issues.’

‘The office was very professional in the way they presented the steps to follow throughout the process. The issue we litigated was a very specific issue and the team did enough research to understand it and also present it in an easy and favorable light.’

‘Cinthya Gonzalez was the associate who handled our case and it was very satisfying for us to know that she was very aware of the situation and all the specialised details of the case, she was also always very proactive in recommending that we make any modifications or clarifications on our case. Likewise, her knowledge of the subject and how the process worked was very valuable in obtaining a favorable result.‘

‘Carlos Bello, who was the partner who handled our case, always gave us his time and availability to explain our matter.’

‘Internal lawyers require a firm in which to entrust the relevant matters of the company and it is not only about the price, it is about the quality of service and compatibility with the members of the internal legal area as well as the practicality of both the service and billing.’

‘The plus is very clear and it is the experience and specialty in litigation, it is not only about taking the trial with common arguments, it is about exploring even the smallest detail that leads us to excellence and neatness in the process. Roberto Cuétara is a capable person and an expert litigator who trusts his legal criteria and we know that he will have explored each and every one of the possibilities and scenarios in specific cases.’

‘The team has a wealth of experience in its area of practice. They are able to provide multiple solutions to legal problems and to react quickly and efficiently to any contingency. They are highly trustworthy in terms of the matters they handle, but are also pragmatic and straightforward. They always look for the best solution for their clients. Roberto Cuétara and his team, especially Roberto Islas, have a very good relationship with their clients. They constantly send reports on the status of the matters in their charge and are always available to answer questions.’

‘Roberto Cuétara, partner of the team, is an exceptional lawyer. He masters civil litigation issues and is capable of providing his clients with various solutions to highly complex legal problems. His management and monitoring of matters generates great confidence in his clients. Roberto Islas is a highly qualified attorney in civil litigation.

‘Hector Anaya, is one of the best lawyers in the firm, he is a person with a high sense of urgency and focused on our business. I am very grateful to Hector for all his support of our organisation.’

‘The Gonzalez Calvillo Litigation team is highly competitive and outstanding. They are always duly updated on judicial reforms and are very well connected with judges, magistrates and ministers. Without a doubt they are above the teams of other firms which are also very competitive. The technology the department uses is in accordance with current needs. It is a totally inclusive office and gives the same opportunities to men as to women.’

‘The litigation area of the firm has extensive and complete experience in civil, commercial and administrative matters. Actually, they are not only litigators, they are transactional lawyers who understand the problems, offer solutions and accompany you in the implementation, they have a lot of experience in infrastructure and engineering projects and public works. It is an elite team and in few offices you can receive legal solutions like those offered by the Greenberg litigation team.’

‘Alejandro Ostos, is an excellent lawyer, a high-flying jurist, with a clear, sharp, peripheral and deep understanding of the issues that arise, he offers comprehensive business solutions and close support that allows achieving the objectives set and providing security legal operations of its clients. It would be a mistake to consider that Alejandro Ostos is only a litigator, he is a business legal adviser.’

‘They are very innovative and not having as big an ego as other litigators in the country helps them stay grounded and really give the best advice to their clients. Jesús Guerra has become one of the most prestigious litigators in the country and Elías Mendoza, despite his age, is also a litigator who already belongs to the big leagues.’

‘Creative solutions and timely follow-up of cases.’

‘I think that something that is favorable is the collaboration between partners with different skills. This ability to collaborate helps to strengthen the work.’

‘Jones Day Mexico clearly differs from other firms not only because of seniority and professionalism, but also because of the level of experience and knowledge of how a company works. which in many occasions is difficult to transmit to a legal firm.

‘JD Mexico, at least the areas that I have had contact with litigation (Mariela) and compliance (Guillermo), clearly differentiate themselves from other firms not only because of seniority and professionalism, but also because of the level of experience and knowledge of how a company works, which is often difficult to transmit to a legal firm. Mariela: excellent attitude, seniority, experience; her work gives a lot of confidence. Guillermo: breadth of knowledge of different subjects; very strong in his area of expertise; very good handling of difficult situations; shows a lot of experience.’
