Ibarra, del Paso y Gallego
Ibarra, del Paso y Gallego’s litigation team excels in the fields of real estate, environmental law and energy, where it primarily handles administrative, civil, commercial and constitutional amparo lawsuits. Experienced in both public and private sector disputes, practice head Juan Miguel Martinez Mendieta is praised by clients for his ‘ability to detect the risks, strengths and weaknesses of a given situation’. Highlighted for his ’excellent service’, senior associate Diego Sándor Maurer is the other name to note. Since publication, the practice has been further strengthened with the March 2024 hires of deeply experienced disputes specialist Pablo Enrique Reyes; and contentious tax specialist Emilio García V, who also handles social security and administrative litigation.
