As one of the country’s top corporate and M&A firms, Creel, García-Cuéllar, Aiza y Enríquez, S.C. excels in such advice to clients across the segments that constitute the TMT sector. Through its regular engagement by heavyweights in the area, the team has steadily developed its regulatory expertise, and can also draws on the know-how housed in the firm’s antitrust practice, particularly in the complex telecoms law segment. One particularly standout area for the broad practice is in the initial structuring of domestic operations for new entrants in the tech sector. The three lawyers to note at the head of the group are: Jorge Kargl, who is well versed in TMT competition law, as well as constitutional appeals; M&A partner Jean Michel Enríquez; and antitrust expert Luis Gerardo García Santos Coy. Carlos Mena is a further name to note for antitrust advice to TMT clients, and Sara Gutiérrez has carved a niche in matters that fall between the competing jurisdictions of Mexico’s antitrust authority (COFECE) and its TMT regulatory body (IFT).
