OUR CLIENTS
We make the complexity
of customs and tax laws
look simple
Our elite team of Tax and Trade lawyers understand
the need of our clients to receive prompt, simple and
effective solutions. These results have been achieved
for more than 40 years, by incorporating into the
DNA of our practice group the following principles:
Anticipation
The Tax and Trade areas are the
most dynamic in Mexico. Providing
answers and advice based solely on
the current regulations is no longer
enough for our clients’ needs. At all
times we keep involved with the
most influential lobbying groups in
the Tax and Trade areas nationally
and internationally, to anticipate
amendments to the legal framework
that may have a future impact on
our clients’ operations.
360° Solutions
In Mexico, the Tax and Trade Areas
are subject to significantly the same
legal principles and administered by
the same Agency. Our team is highly
specialized in both areas to enssure
that the answers and solutions
provided to our clients have been
analyzed from all possible angles.
High Specialization
Our experienced attorneys are
highly specialized and in constant
training, which translates into the
sophistication of this practice group.
Trade areas are recognized year by
year as leading lawyers in Mexico
(Chambers
&
Partners,
Latin
Lawyer).
Client Satisfaction
Our service is based on the
principles of 365/7 availability; cost
efficiency; response to calls or
e-mails within 12 hours; 100%
deadline
compliance;
continual
information to the client; flexible
innovative
solutions;
bilingual
attorneys exclusively; honesty.
Network
