Litigation

 

Valdés Abascal y Brito Anderson, S.C. is leading Firm in Amparo, Administrative, Civil, Commercial and Fiscal Litigation.

We have participated in complex litigation cases in a diversity of areas of the law, and have successfully contested the unconstitutionality of norms and regulations as well as arbitrary acts of administrative authorities.

The Firm distinguishes itself in this area and has benefited in a significant way from its experience in substantive and procedure reforms1, which has led the Firm in developing high skills to interpret the reach and aim of the different laws and regulations, to determine the scope of application and to identify the best available arguments to support the cases in which it takes part in.

Our experience in amparo is wide, both in the administrative matters, and against tax laws, as in civil and commercial matters.

In administrative litigation, our practice focuses in representing our clients in amparo proceedings, administrative litigation and legal actions in matters related to the application of laws applied by the following Ministries or other administrative authorities: Ministry of Finance (SHCP) and Internal Provence Service (SAT); Ministry of the Public Function (SFP); Ministry of Communications and Transport (SCT) and Federal Commission of Telecommunications (COFETEL); Ministry of Economy (SE), Federal Competition Commission (COFECO) , Mexican Institute of Industrial Property (IMPI) and Federal Attorney's Office for Consumer Protection (PROFECO); and Ministry of Energy (SENER) and Regulatory Commission of Energy (CRE).

In civil and commercial litigation, our activity has been centered in litigations before Federal Courts as well as Local courts (the amparo proceeding included), in matters related to real estate, breach of contracts, business entities, financial instruments, successions and family law.
