Guerra González y Asociados, S.C. — Mexico

About

Guerra González y Asociados stands at the forefront of Mexico’s bankruptcy, restructuring and high-stakes dispute resolution market. The firm is consistently retained in some of the country’s most complex insolvency proceedings and bet-the-company civil and commercial litigation matters. In insolvency and restructuring, the firm has led proceedings involving liabilities exceeding USD $1 billion and restructurings above USD $500 million, acting for debtors, financial institutions, bondholders, trustees and multinational corporations across regulated and strategically sensitive industries. The team is particularly recognized for its litigation-driven restructuring model, combining courtroom dominance with financial and strategic sophistication. Beyond insolvency, the firm is widely regarded as one of Mexico’s leading civil and commercial litigation powerhouses. The dispute resolution team regularly handles multimillion- and multibillion-dollar claims, including trustee liability disputes exceeding USD $1.6 billion, infrastructure-related credit recoveries above USD $50 million, complex shareholder conflicts, enforcement of trusts and security interests, injunctive relief challenges, cross-border enforcement strategies and precedent-setting constitutional litigation before Federal Courts and the Supreme Court. The practice is led by a founding partner, seven partners, and eleven junior partners, supported by a broader team of attorneys and law clerks, all specializing in commercial, civil, administrative, and bankruptcy litigation and dispute resolution. Senior partners are directly involved in every strategic decision, ensuring full control in highly sensitive proceedings. The firm’s experience spans virtually every major productive sector of the Mexican economy, including banking and financial services, steel and mining, chemical and manufacturing industries, construction and real estate, energy and oil, telecommunications and technology, transportation and railway operations, food production and dairy, hospitality and tourism, agriculture and industrial operations. Guerra González is regularly engaged in distressed or highly adversarial scenarios considered unmanageable by others. Its ability to combine aggressive litigation strategy, technical procedural mastery and crisis management under political or financial pressure firmly positions the firm as a top-tier insolvency and dispute resolution leader in Mexico. ### Languages - Spanish - English ### Memberships - Jaime R.
