Firm Overview:

The mission at OLIVARES is to provide innovative solutions and highly specialised legal advice for clients facing the most complicated legal and business challenges in Mexico.

OLIVARES is continuously at the forefront of practice area innovations related to IP, litigation, regulatory, anti-counterfeiting, plant varieties, domain names, digital rights and internet-related matters, and the firm has been responsible for precedent-setting decisions in relation to patents, copyright and trademarks.

The firm’s patent practice has been responsible for at least 20,000 fillings in the past decade, positioning itself as one of the leaders in the Mexican market.

The firm is committed to developing the strongest group of legal professionals to manage the level of complexity and interdisciplinary orientation that clients require. During the first decade of the 21st century, the team successfully led efforts to reshape IP laws and change regulatory authorisation procedures in Mexico, not only through thought leadership and lobbying efforts, but also by winning landmark and precedent-setting cases at the Mexican Federal and Supreme Court levels, including in constitutional matters.

Today, the team at OLIVARES includes eleven partners and more than 45 associates working across IP, regulatory, administrative, civil and commercial litigation and corporate law, serving many different industries, and the firm is constantly awarded for excellence in legal service.

The firm aims to utilise every available resource to help clients achieve optimum results, protecting their business interests, intellectual property and other rights, at every level, and through the applicable administrative or judicial venue, in order to maximise successful outcomes – all while maintaining an overarching goal of contributing to Mexico’s broader stance in the global economy and for the greater good of the Mexican people.

OLIVARES stands apart from others in Mexico:

  • in shaping the IP and regulatory landscape;
  • in serving as a model for the industry, with the development of unique solutions that become the standard of service;
  • in the breadth of knowledge and experience of our team, in the more than 52 years of our practice;
  • in implementing practice innovations; and
  • in prosecution and litigation success, when it matters most, with more benchmark decisions in intellectual property and more filings than nearly any other firm in the jurisdiction.

VISION is to shape the legal environment that opens Mexico to the greatest innovations the world has to offer by:

  • providing exceptional legal services that result in client growth and business success;
  • creating an atmosphere where lawyers, technical experts and staff work together on solutions that lead to brilliant achievements; and
  • inspiring improvements to the legal landscapes in Mexico that foster economic progress.
