Clyde & Co. expands into Mexico

London-based law firm Clyde & Co. said Wednesday it is expanding its Latin American presence with the opening of its first office in Mexico, thorough its merger with Mexican law firm Garza Tello & Asociados S.C.

The Mexico City-based law firm specializes in insurance, marine and energy law in Mexico, according to the statement.

Clyde & Co. said the merger, which is pending regulatory approval, provides it with “market-leading Mexican capabilities across a number of complementary sectors, such as wider Latin American expertise.” The law firm also has offices in Brazil and Venezuela.
