How we can help
A Mexico City law firm for problems that end up in court
Most people reach us when something has already gone wrong: a tenant who stopped paying and will not leave, a property that was paid for but never signed over, a relative who passed away and left a house in Mexico City, a divorce with children or property involved.
We start there: what happened, which documents you have and what can be asked of a judge. Then we tell you plainly which legal action applies, what comes next and how long each stage usually takes.
If you live outside Mexico
If you own property in Mexico City, have family here or are handling an inheritance from abroad, we explain the process in plain terms and tell you, from the first consultation, what we need from you and when.
Practice areas
Real estate, civil, commercial, family and criminal
What we handle in each area. Tell us about your case on WhatsApp and we will tell you whether we can take it.

Houses, apartments, commercial units, warehouses and land. We represent you in the lawsuits to recover, deed or defend your property.
- Unpaid rent and evictionsBack rent, ending or cancelling the lease and getting the property back. We also represent tenants.
- Deeds and property salesYou paid and the deed was never signed, or you sold and were never fully paid.
- Recovering a propertyWhen someone came in with a contract or your permission and will not leave, or becoming the legal owner of what you have held for years.

First consultation
How the first consultation works
The first consultation is a paid advisory session of 1,500 Mexican pesos, at our office in Polanco or online. We review your documents and tell you which legal action applies. If the matter can be solved without going to court, we tell you that too.
We speak English. You can write to us and talk to us in English, and our WhatsApp is answered directly by a lawyer, not by a receptionist. The consultation is given by one of the firm's lead lawyers, with live interpretation when needed so that nothing gets lost.
Office hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. (Mexico City time).
