Mijares, Angoitia, Cortés y Fuentes S.C.‘s robust labour litigation and advisory practice advises a high-profile multinational client base on a range of employment matters, including hiring strategies, executive compensation, and compliance, particularly in regulated sectors such as construction, financial services, and technology. The practice offers ongoing support through labour audits and risk assessments to mitigate potential liabilities, and provides transactional expertise on the labour aspects of M&A deals. It also regularly represents clients in labour disputes, with particular strength in handling sensitive matters involving senior executives and complex cross-border issues. The practice is co-led by Claudio Jiménez de León, whose experience covers labour advisory, individual and collective litigation, and amparo proceedings, and Rodrigo del Valle, who focuses on corporate reorganisations, compensation design, and the resolution of collective disputes. Alejandra Mora is the standout associate at the practice, who has extensive experience advising on labour issues for high-profile energy projects. Recent lateral hires have added further depth to the team at the associate level: Antonio Franco, formerly of Basham, Ringe y Correa, S.C., enhances the group’s litigation and transactional capabilities, while Regina Pérez, who joined in August 2024 from Chevez Ruiz Zamarripa, brings focused expertise in labour compliance and outsourcing regulation.
