Mexico > Competition and antitrust
(Leading associates)Standing out for its ‘technical level and its knowledge of competition law‘, Hogan Lovells has a robust offering in antitrust and competition law, regularly assisting with merger control for major international M&A, as well as with investigations carried out by Cofece. On the merger control side, the department has assisted clients from a variety of sectors in recent major transactions, including the energy market, representing BNP Paribas in an auto-finance acquisition, and acting for Assa Abloy on its $4.3bn acquisition of Spectrum Brands Home. As regards investigations, the team’s recent slate of work has included matters relating to cartels as well as abuse of dominant position. At the helm of the practice, Omar Guerrero
draws client recognition as ‘an expert in economic competition issues‘ and -as a dispute resolution specialist- focuses primarily on the contentious side of competition law. Fellow parctice co-head Ricardo Pons is quite simply one of the market’s best-recognised figures for merger control. Younger partner Alan Ramirez Casazza is a name for the future in investigations of both cartel and abuse of dominance, as well as for antitrust litigation; while at senior associate level, Martín Michaus-Fernández has a similar contentious focus and can also draw on experience working in the US.
