What we do
Practice areas
DMA Legal concentrates its practice in five areas: banking and finance, corporate/M&A, real estate, private equity, and insurance. In each one the firm handles the complete transaction —structuring, documentation, regulatory compliance, and closing— across domestic and cross-border matters, with direct partner attention on every engagement.
International calibre, partner-level attention on every matter
Your transactions are complex, frequently cross-border and subject to critical deadlines; they demand both the rigor of an international firm and the proximity of a boutique practice. At DMA Legal we offer both: partners with backgrounds at leading global firms, direct access at every stage of your matter, and service models that adapt to your needs.
We place that experience at your service across the following areas:
Banking and Finance
We advise domestic and international financial institutions, investment funds, and corporations on the documentation, coordination, and formalization of financing transactions.
Furthermore, we advise investors on many regulatory aspects, including the establishment and operation of financial institutions, representative offices and Multiple Purpose Financial Entities (SOFOMES).
Corporate/M&A
We provide outstanding legal services in corporate and commercial law to Mexican and foreign clients, both for their daily corporate needs and for operations of great magnitude and complexity.
We advise Mexican and foreign clients in mergers and acquisitions of companies and assets in different sectors of industry and commerce.
Regarding corporate governance, we carry out diagnoses and design the ideal structure for each organization, we draft the operating rules of the governing bodies and the profile of their board members, manuals and succession plans, and we accompany boards in their meetings.
For family businesses, we carry out diagnoses, draft family protocols, create family councils, and design and implement family offices. We also establish succession plans and shareholders' agreements.
Insurance
We have vast experience advising insurance companies on various aspects of their operations, including compliance with their obligations before the authorities and their clients.
Private Equity
We advise private equity funds, investors, and portfolio companies on structuring and executing their investments, from vehicle formation and opportunity analysis to acquisition, co-investment, and exit transactions.
We support every stage of the deal —legal due diligence, negotiation of shareholders' agreements, and financing documentation— aligning the structure with the fund's return objectives.
Real Estate
We advise developers, creditors, and investors about all types of real estate projects, including housing, touristic, commercial and industrial.
Likewise, we actively participate with funds and real estate investment trusts (FIBRAS) in regulatory and tax issues that impact this type of investment vehicle.
