Thompson & Knight has represented clients in business transactions in Latin America for more than 35 years. Through our offices in Monterrey and Mexico City, we counsel U.S., Mexican, and international clients currently doing business, or considering doing business, in Mexico and elsewhere in Latin America.

More than 20 Thompson & Knight attorneys served in the legal departments of major U.S., Mexican, and multinational companies - such as Protexa, Vitro, and FEMSA - before joining our firm. Several Thompson & Knight attorneys hold active memberships in Mexico's Asociacion Nacional de Abogados de Empresa A.C. and frequently make presentations (in English and in Spanish) to professional legal and industry groups on both sides of the border. Members of the Firm have also received faculty appointments at the Instituto Tecnológico de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey and lectured at Colegio de Abogados de Monterrey.

We provide U.S. and Mexican legal counsel in diverse commercial transactions and matters. The clients served by our Monterrey office range from individuals to multinational conglomerates and host governments and include financial institutions, manufacturers and distributors of industrial goods, manufacturers and distributors of food and beverage products, offshore oil and gas drilling services, real estate development companies, and entities in the agriculture, energy, construction, telecommunications, transportation, and retail sectors.

Because border commerce and trans-border commercial operations often involve immigration, employment, and labor issues, we have extensive experience with maquiladora facilities and all relevant union, non-union, employer, and employee relationships. Our attorneys also help clients comply with federal and state employment laws and treaties, and regularly defend employers against every form of employment-related claim, dispute, and lawsuit.
