Guerra, Hidalgo y Mendoza (GHM)

Lauded as ‘experts in dispute resolution and asset recovery in insolvency scenarios’, the ’well-oiled machine’ that is bankruptcy and dispute resolution-focused boutique Guerra, Hidalgo y Mendoza (GHM) is a strong choice for the gamut of restructuring and insolvency mandates. The team is frequently called upon by creditors and debtors alike and draws on extensive experience handling voluntary, involuntary and pre-packaged insolvency proceedings, debt restructurings and fund recovery mandates. Leadership is shared between ‘benchmark in the industry’ Jesús Ángel Guerra Méndez, ’excellent lawyer’ Elías Mendoza Murguía and Patricio Hidalgo Estrada, who is praised for his ‘remarkable communication skills before judicial authorities’. All three maintain practices focused squarely on insolvency and associated commercial, administrative and constitutional litigation. Following the July 2024 departure of former senior Patricia Cervantes, the key names to note at associate level are ’well-rounded lawyer’ Adrián Villamil; ‘expert associates’ Sandra Trejo and Anayely Galindo; and Regina Tinoco Ariza González (civil, administrative and commercial litigation, arbitration and restructuring).
