Hogan Lovells

Hogan Lovells stands out for its antitrust litigation capabilities, which see the practice engaged by clients in numerous investigations, constitutional amparo challenges against COFECE, and even civil litigation, where the team handle a civil-damages case resulting from cartel offences in the Mexican pharmaceutical industry. Away from its strong contentious offering, the practice is equally robust when it comes to competition advisory, with strengths in the development of compliance programs and securing merger control for complex transactions. Ricardo Pons is a recognised leader in the field, particularly in merger control proceedings; he co-leads the practice with Omar Guerrero, a dedicated litigator who routinely tackles abuse of dominance and cartel investigations before the competition authorities and federal courts. The group also draws on the experience of up-and-coming partner Alan Ramírez Casazza, who maintains a full-service competition practice across a variety of industries, ranging from investigations and contentious matters to merger control and compliance programs. Senior associate Martín Michaus Fernández supports on merger control mandates and has also undertaken administrative and constitutional litigation before antitrust agencies across several jurisdictions in Latin America as well as the United States.
