Mexico: Communications, Internet & e-Commerce

According to a report by PricewaterhouseCoopers, the mobile subscriber market in Mexico is forecasted to reach 107 million subscribers by the end of 2015. As connectivity across the country continues to grow, the telecoms and e-commerce bars are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Our research identifies 14 experts who lead the field for their work in relation to communications, internet and e-commerce.

Mexico: Competition

Recent changes to the Mexican competition law, which became effective in May 2011, considerably increased the power of the commission, allowing it to impose higher fines and conduct unannounced dawn raids. In this new regulatory landscape, companies are in need of legal expertise to help them navigate the changes and implement compliance programmes. Our research identifies 18 of the leading lawyers in this field who are well suited to fulfilling such a task.

Mexico: Corporate Governance

Our research identifies 13 individuals for their expertise in providing guidance to corporate clients on regulatory and governance matters.

Mexico: Corporate Immigration

These are times of plenty for Mexican immigration lawyers – a new immigration law passed in May has brought about an increase in advisory work and multinational companies have continued their expansion into the Mexican market. We identify five lawyers as leaders in this developing sector.

Mexico: Corporate Tax

President Calderon recently approved the extension of an executive order providing tax incentives to the Mexico-based assembly plants of foreign manufacturers in an effort to attract more investment to the country and boost the job market. Part of a broader strategy aimed at stimulating the national economy and allowing companies to develop projects more efficiently, the tax benefits will now extend to 2013. Lawyers specialising in corporate taxation matters in Mexico are playing a key role in the country’s ongoing economic development and reported an “extremely busy” year. The following 19 names are the leading players in this marketplace.

Mexico: Environment

Mexico appears to be on track to elevate its renewable power capacity to 7.5 per cent (from 3.3 per cent) in 2012. With an abundance of natural resources, environmental law is a prominent feature in the Mexican legal market place. We profile the 11 leading lawyers in this practice area.

Mexico: Franchise

Franchising continues to play an increasingly important role in the Mexican legal market, with activity diversifying to encompass a range of industries from hospitality to health and beauty. Our research identifies six exceptional franchise lawyers.

Mexico: Insolvency & Restructuring

Mexico has not been completely immune to the impact of the global financial crisis, in part due to its strong ties with the US. Consequently insolvency and restructuring lawyers have remained busy and our research identifies 11 of Mexico’s leading practitioners in this sector.
