Sainz Abogados

Sainz Abogados's practice brings together transactional and litigation expertise, offering banks, securities companies, and corporations assistance with in-court and out-of-court bankruptcy and restructuring proceedings, cross-border reorganisations, insolvency procedures and workouts. Recent years have seen the group participate in some of Mexico’s most significant cases, including Unifin Financiera, Alpha Credit, Oro Negro, Aeroméxico, Altán Redes and TV Azteca. Alejandro Sainz steers the practice and has experience representing both companies from various industries in insolvency matters, as well as ad-hoc committees of international bondholders and those holding notes issued by Mexican entities abroad. His broad practice also takes in finance, corporate governance, M&A, investigations and compliance. Additional key figures include Daniel Díaz Álvarez, who handles bankruptcy, commercial litigation, shareholders’ conflicts and public work disputes; Santiago Alessio, Rodrigo Guaida, and Gabriela Avendaño, who major on corporate reorganisations, bankruptcy and cross-border insolvency procedures. Associates Yoare Heredia, Lucía Laganá, and Luis Antonio Estrella provide the partners with across-the-board support. The firm has been notably strengthened with the April 2024 arrival of an eight-strong group from Pérez-Llorca, including specialists in banking and finance, corporate and M&A, competition, and energy and projects.
