Mexico > Dispute resolution: arbitration

Hogan Lovells‘ Mexican team provides one of the broadest arbitration offerings in the jurisdiction, excelling both in international arbitration and across an array of domestic arbitral matters – most notably commercial, energy and construction cases. Handling a health caseload of US-Mexico cross border mandates the firm’s Mexico City and Monterrey offices work closely with their counterparts across the US (most notably New York and Miami); while more broadly the firm’s global presence (particularly its offices in Madrid, Paris and London) bolsters its multi-jurisdictional capability. The automotive and energy sectors both stand out as particular areas of expertise, yielding a varied slate of matters. Dispute resolution specialist Omar Guerrero is a renowned figure in complex arbitration mandates, either as party counsel or as sole arbitrator; he also has strong litigious and competition capabilities. Guerrero co-leads the arbitration department with Luis Enrique Graham, a similarly celebrated senior figure for arbitral matters in Mexico. Monterrey-based partner Alejandro García González, whose broad dispute resolution practice includes expertise in national and international commercial arbitration, is an additional experienced name. Further strength-in-depth is evident beneath partner level, with key figures including: counsel Juan Arturo Dueñas, who has considerable experience in energy sector arbitration; senior associate Orlando Cabrera, who advises governments and corporate investors on dispute resolution and political risk management; and fellow senior associate Eduardo Lobatón, who divides his time between the Miami and Mexico City offices and handles a varied international arbitration caseload.
