Kennedys continues to grow its client base of local and international insurers and reinsurers which it advises across all insurance lines. The firm's Mexico office was established in 2016 and can draw on the resources of the broader firm's global network, bolstering its relationships with international clients and its strength in cross-border advice. The practice is co-led by founding partner of the Mexico office, Michael Hennessy, who specialises in insurance and reinsurance coverage advice and dispute resolution; and legal director Vanessa Vargas, who has experience in financial lines as well as property and construction insurance. Senior associate Israel Castañeda is a further key contact and has guided legal strategy in high-profile liability cases.
