Antitrust, compliance and telecoms matters are all overseen by Carlos Chávez, a trusted counsel to significant telecoms operators in Mexico who has considerable experience dealing with both the Mexican competition authority (COFECE) and the telecoms regulator (IFT). Ricardo García is the main contact to note for M&A in the sector, along with technology and e-commerce; he continues to build experience in technology matters and coordinates all requests regarding technology and media for the firm. On the fintech front, Arturo Perdomo is the most senior and experienced name, while former Meta associate general counsel Xavier Careaga, a November 2023 counsel hire, is the key figure as regards internet law and related matters for tech clients.
