Lawyer Rankings

Mexico > Tax

DLA Piper Mexico‘s tax offering continues to go from strength to strength under the stewardship of Guillermo Aguayo, particularly improving its profile for contentious cross-border matters involving the US, where it collaborates closely with its sister offices. Litigation against tax assessment decisions and arbitration claims under NAFTA are among the practice’s slate of contentious work; while on the advisory side, the practice has a strong reputation in tax matters related to cross-border and domestic M&A and corporate reorganisations. Key support is provided by associate Ricardo Mendoza, who regularly assists with audit procedures and tax and administrative litigation. A further differentiator for the team is the presence of lawyer accountants at the associate level, with Jorge Flores being the name to note.
