Von Wobeser y Sierra, SC fields a capable dispute resolution department with a strong track record in complex civil and commercial litigation, including class actions, contractual breaches, and property disputes. The team has extensive experience navigating cross-border challenges on behalf of international clients with which it tends to build longstanding relations; moreover, it has notable strength in cases at the intersection of commercial and administrative law, demonstrated in recent high-profile cases in the agricultural sector. The practice is co-led by Adrián Magallanes, a recognised expert in energy and construction-related contract disputes; and Diego Sierra, who brings seasoned experience in complex litigation and anti-corruption matters. A trio of younger partners enhanced the team’s specialist depth: Jessika Rocha focuses on contract termination and civil liability issues in the energy and maritime sectors; Raymundo Soberanis represents energy and pharmaceutical clients; and Pablo Fautsch plays a key role in construction and infrastructure disputes. Counsel Rodrigo Barradas is also a key figure with significant experience representing clients before local and federal courts.
