- Extensive knowledge and experience in litigation.
- The main advantage of Dr. Oscar Gutierrez and María Alejandra Ortiz lay in their close relationship with us as clients and their genuine desire to fully understand all the technical, contractual, and commercial aspects that gave rise to the litigation. This allowed them to build a solid legal strategy with our interests always at the forefront.
