Ramírez, Gutiérrez-Azpe, Rodríguez-Rivero y Hurtado, S.C. (“RGRH”) was founded in 1997. Since then, its client base has grown and currently consists of both small and midsize Mexican and foreign companies, as well as multinationals doing business in Mexico.

Regardless of the fact that RGRH is a midsize firm, since the beginning it has held its place among the leading business firms and ranks among the most recognized commercial law firms in Mexico. RGRH’s philosophy is based on tailored service, professional excellence, timely response, and reasonable rates, which make it a competitive firm in today’s demanding market and ever-changing business environment. This philosophy has allowed RGRH to not just preserve its clientele, but to steadily grow. RGRH has always placed an emphasis on excellence, which starts by choosing the best students from a variety of schools.

Our attorneys are encouraged to study outside of Mexico and work abroad as part of their education. This enables them to become acquainted with other legal systems and allows them to better understand our foreign clients’ needs.

Our attorneys possess an astute awareness of both legal and business issues, which makes them easy to work with. Some are fluent in various languages, including Spanish, English, and French. The legal work and transactions in which RGRH is involved cover a wide array of topics and range in sophistication from day-to-day corporate work to multinational acquisitions. Our partners are well-established members of the Mexican business community and have extensive contact with numerous local businesspeople and key individuals in local and federal government. They also have wide international exposure and are active members of the American Bar Association and the International Bar Association. As a firm, we belong to several international networks, in addition to having a close working relationship with firms in the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
