Over the last four years Uber has developed a major presence in Mexico, with a strong in-house legal team at the heart of the ride hire company’s expansion in the country and successful navigation of its legal hurdles. The team worked on a series of litigations resulting in a Supreme Court decision in the company’s favour preventing a limit on the drivers that can use the app to find clients and limit the payment of cash through the platform. This action was brought by Uber in response to the Sustainable Mobility Law of the State of Colima and is recognised as a major demonstration of the team’s ability and a major development for the ride hire industry in Mexico. The team has overseen the legal matters key to the development of 10 new support centres and the expansion of the app’s reach to
10 additional Mexican cities.
