The team at Von Wobeser y Sierra, SC is a strong choice for a range of compliance mandates. Key strengths include handling anti-corruption due diligence, providing preventive advice and advising on the design of internal compliance programmes. In addition, the group is equipped to assist with national and cross-border investigations — both internal and by regulatory bodies — as well as criminal and civil litigation arising from investigations. Diego Sierra (who also co-leads the firm’s arbitration and litigation practices) directs the group and specialises in matters of anti-corruption, due diligence and bankruptcy. Also noted are Raymundo Soberanis and Pablo Fautsch, both of whom deal with compliance, arbitration, litigation, and bankruptcy and restructuring. Counsel Enrique Riquelme regularly participates in sensitive internal investigations with forensic experts, in-house counsel and special committees in matters involving white-collar crime, theft, corporate misconduct and corruption. Counsel Ricardo Cacho has focused his practice on investigations and litigation, with an emphasis on tax offences and financial crimes. Since publication, Cacho has been raised to the partnership - effective as of January 2026.
