Professional Profile

A practicing attorney who, for more than twenty-five years, has dedicated his professional career to litigating civil and commercial proceedings of high complexity, involving substantial amounts at stake and the representation of high-profile clients, both domestic and international.

Academic Background

Graduate of Universidad Panamericana, where he earned his Law Degree with the Professional Thesis entitled "Problems of Jurisprudence in the Mexican Legal System."

Professional Experience

From 1999 to 2004, he served as an associate attorney in the civil and commercial litigation practice group of Martínez, Algaba, Estrella, de Haro y Galván Duque, S.C. (now Creel, García-Cuéllar, Aiza y Enríquez), one of Mexico's leading firms in those areas, where he specialized in the preparation and prosecution of civil and commercial claims, handling all procedural stages, including the drafting and filing of amparo proceedings.

He also handled insolvency and bankruptcy proceedings for various companies, representing both debtors undergoing restructuring and creditors seeking the recovery of their claims.

From 2004 to 2005, he worked as an associate attorney at García González Abogados, S.C., a firm whose practice encompasses civil and commercial litigation, as well as family law matters.

Notable Cases

Several of the legal strategies he has implemented have served as the foundation for landmark discussions before the country's highest courts, giving rise to binding judicial precedents. Two cases stand out as particularly significant within the legal community: in the first, through a direct amparo on review, he successfully argued before the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation that the principle of equality required an analysis of the application of the "suplencia de la queja" doctrine in civil matters — an institution historically reserved for social-interest areas such as labor and agrarian law. In the second, he petitioned the federal courts for a novel interpretation of the "right of corporate withdrawal" in commercial law, thereby opening the door for the exercise of that right in favor of minority shareholders, enabling them to withdraw from the company and receive payment for their shares in proportion to the net assets of the corporation.

Academic Activity

Since 2010, he has served as a professor of Civil Procedural Law at Universidad Panamericana.

Recognition

In 2016, he was awarded the Civil Merit decoration for his outstanding contributions to the legal profession in that field of law. The recognition was presented by the then-Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation, Luis María Aguilar Morales, on the occasion of Mexican Lawyers' Day.

In 2025, he received the Alfonso X "El Sabio" Medal in recognition of 15 years of service as a professor at Universidad Panamericana.
