Mexico > Labour and employment

Marván, González Graf y González Larrazolo, S.C. (MGGL) is one of Mexico’s foremost labour and employment law boutiques whose caseload ranges from high-profile disputes and collective bargaining matters, to the labour aspects of high-end M&A and corporate restructurings. The six-partner team is supported by more than 80 lawyers, allowing the firm to take on a huge volume of cases that constitute a substantial share of the market. Recent labour law reforms that prohibit insourcing/outsourcing contracts have been a significant source of work for the firm recently, given the numerous multinationals from a variety of sectors that feature on its client roster. The trio of Héctor González Graf, Santiago Marván Urquiza and Nelson Guerrero Robles co-ordinate the practice and all draw on a wealth of experience in the field. In earlier stages of their labour law careers are younger partners Emilio Israel Garzón Juárez, a strong litigator with experience of strategic advice to the pharmaceutical, health and retail industries; Cristian Jesús Lamas Peregrina, who has a similarly broad practice with particular niche expertise in the automotive sector; and José Genaro Pérez Velázquez, who leads the offering at the firm’s Guadalajara office. Among the aforementioned team of non-partner lawyers, associates Paulina Mendietta and Oscar Bojorge stand out. Since publication, Bojorge has been raised to the partnership – effective as of January 2024.
