The team at CDA Abogados, which garners client praise for its ‘quality, precision, willingness and dedication’, is regularly instructed by domestic and international companies seeking assistance with M&A, spin-offs, joint ventures, strategic alliances and corporate restructurings. Leadership of the practice is shared between Alejandro Díaz Steta and Luis Cervantes Castillo, both of whom were previously partners at Sainz Abogados. Both have broad practices handling banking and finance, bankruptcy and restructuring, corporate, M&A, real estate, and dispute resolution mandates. The team was further reinforced, recently, with the senior associate arrivals of Juan Enrique Lizardi Becerra (formerly at Nader, Hayaux y Goebel, SC), in August 2023; and Luis González Ludlow (previously at Kuri Breña, Sánchez Ugarte y Aznar), in January 2024.
