Who are we Our Overall Experience and Work
In its beginnings, Vazquez Tercero y Asociados focused on
institutional industrial policy and foreign trade matters. However,
since Mexico started to open its economy in the mid 80’s, our experience
of work has been in international trade area. We consider ourselves to
be Mexico’s most respected and influent firm in international trade
practice in Mexico. Several of our professionals participated during
GATT accession negotiations for the government of Mexico, and were
advisers for several major industrial associations during NAFTA
negotiations. We have played a major role in the creation of leading
associations, export programs and liberalization of Mexican economy.
We serve a diversity of clients, from highly experienced companies to
firms seeking their first operations overseas. We are dedicated to help
companies throughout the world to compete and have free access in the
Mexican market. We are proud of being trade and customs advisers to
major national and foreign associations.
We represent our clients before all Mexican Ministries dealing with
international trade matters, primarily before the Ministry of Economy,
Ministry of the Treasury, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Agriculture,
Ministry of Foreign Relations, Ministry of the Interior, as well as
other Governmental Institutions and Commissions.
We attend trade and customs controversies having an effect on our
clients and challenge adverse determinations before the Federal Fiscal
Court, District Courts, Federal Circuit Tribunals and the Supreme Court
of Justice. The firm also practices under alternative dispute settlement
mechanisms provided in international free trade agreements to which
Mexico is a part therein, among them: NAFTA, EUFTA, G3, Chile, Costa
Rica, Bolivia. Vazquez Tercero y Asociados is also prepared to advise
private companies on WTO (DSO) Disputes.
Because we have an international practice, we have correspondent
offices in major cities in Mexico, the Americas, Europe and the United
States, who can provide for local assistance.
