Individual residents of Mexico and other jurisdictions look to the private client department at Chevez Ruiz Zamarripa for comprehensive counsel across tax obligations, as well as for the development and implementation of investment and legal structures both in Mexico and abroad. Alfredo Sánchez's team is the choice for a host of international banks and financial institutions when referring their clients for Mexican law advice. Sánchez himself is a veteran of the practice area, having assisted with estate and succession planning for more than 30 years; he heads a department that also includes Ana Sofía Ríos, who - despite her relative youth - has already established herself as one of the go-to names in Mexico’s private wealth arena. Ricardo Paullada adds tax expertise, along with tax consultant Jose Carlos Silva; while Eduardo Valenzuela supports on private client matters in Mexico from the firm’s New York office. Samy Lazarov is also a partner to note, while at the firm’s Monterrey office, Jose Alberto Mesta and Marco Antonio de la Fuente are the key contacts.
