Mexico > Dispute resolution: arbitration
Holland & Knight’s arbitration practice is particularly sought after for commercial and investment disputes with public international law or multi-jurisdictional components. Per one client, ‘its main strength is the international structure that feeds important issues to the Mexico City office’; and indeed, the team in Mexico works closely with others around the world, especially the Washington DC group. Some of its most recent Mexico-led arbitrations have come in the telecoms, technology and energy sectors; in the latter area, the team has handled several arbitration proceedings relating to infrastructure and power purchase agreements. Following the August 2023 departure of former practice head Carlos Vejar, Luis Rubio is the key name (particularly for NAFTA-related matters), while senior counsel Juan Pablo Moyano specialises in commercial arbitration and cross-border disputes. At associate level, Antonio Barrera joined from Mañón Quintana Abogados in October 2022 and bolsters the energy side of the practice, with Laura Yvonne Zielinski (who was appointed senior counsel in September 2023) and Josafat Paredes being the other younger practitioners of note.
