Tax powerhouse Chevez Ruiz Zamarripa’s recently established corporate and M&A practice continues to steadily develop its capabilities with clients lauding the team's ‘control of the services at all times’ and ’timely follow-up on all issues’, and benefitting from the firm's presence in Madrid, New York and Houston, as well as México City, Queretaro and Monterrey. The ‘excellent team’ is led by Miguel Valle, whose extensive experience includes cross-border transactions, joint ventures, PE and VC transactions, along with complex and day to day corporate matters such as foreign investment, SPVs, corporate obligations, governance structures and commercial agreements. In addition to Valle, Ana Sofía Ríos, (’really capable and prepared to handle issues’), advises on corporate governance and regulatory compliance matters; Jimena González De Cossío, handles corporate and financial law (including stock market operations, international and structured financing, and M&A); younger partner Fernando González (raised to the partnership in December 2021); and Guillermo Bueno (a September 2022 hire from Araoz & Rueda to the Madrid office), complete the senior practice group. A strong associate bench includes senior Marisa Labrador (an October 2022 hire from Mijares, Angoitia, Cortés y Fuentes S.C.); experienced associate Isabel Núñez (corporate restructuring, M&A, and wealth management); and Santiago Carrera and Alejandra Pacheco.
