Mariana HernándezMCM Abogados

Energy boutique MCM Abogados is best known for its ‘extensive experience in oil and gas matters in Mexico‘ and is counsel of choice to some of the international heavyweights of the sector, including ExxonMobil, and domestic leaders such as Vista Energy. Cross-border oil-and-gas work, particularly involving the US and the UK, is something of a central pillar at the firm, while on the power generation front, it’s practice is steadily growing, with Kino Energia added as a client for wind power in 2023. Three partners coordinate the department: Manuel Cervantes, firm founder and managing partner, who is regarded as one of the go-to lawyers in the market for complex financial and development structures; Mariana Hernandez, an expert in corporate and M&A work in the energy space; and younger partner Jorge Cabeza, who acts for oil companies, investors, traders and service providers. Primary support to the practice heads comes from Francisco Valencia, a senior associate with experience in the hydrocarbons and power sectors, on both regulatory and litigious matters.
