Norton Rose Fulbright leverages its position as a heavyweight firm worldwide to provide counsel on transactions and project development in the hydrocarbons, renewables and power industries in Mexico. The team in Mexico City has broad project finance, regulatory and M&A expertise in the Mexican energy sector and the firm has a particularly well interconnected offering across the Americas, benefitting its multinational clients with operations all over the region.
