Contact us
At Mijares, we provide strategic legal counsel to investors and companies involved in complex energy and infrastructure projects in Mexico.
Our practice is distinguished by its ability to integrate multiple disciplines—regulatory, contractual, financial and compliance—across highly regulated sectors such as electricity, oil & gas, transportation, telecommunications and emerging energy technologies.
We advise our clients through every stage of the project: from legal and financial structuring to development, construction, operation and maintenance, with an agile, technical approach that is deeply aligned with the evolution of the regulatory framework.

Electricity (renewable and conventional)
We advise on the development of power projects under any generation scheme, including solar, wind, hydroelectric and thermal. Our experience spans obtaining regulatory permits, ensuring compliance, preparing and negotiating contractual structures (including EPCs, TSAs, BOPs, O&Ms and PPAs) structuring financing arrangements (including project finance) and handling the acquisition or sale of energy assets. We work with both sponsors and lenders on projects that require multidisciplinary input.
Oil & Gas
We provide comprehensive legal counsel for hydrocarbon exploration, production, transportation and marketing projects. Our practice covers regulatory, contractual, corporate and financial aspects, including participation in bid rounds, service contracts, farm‑outs and associated infrastructure projects. We represent operators as well as funds and financial entities.
New Technologies
We represent clients in innovative projects such as green hydrogen, biofuels, battery storage and other emerging technologies. We assist with the legal and financial structuring of these projects and with navigating regulatory frameworks that are still evolving, positioning our clients as leaders in the energy transition.
Transportation Infrastructure
We advise on highway, airport, rail and port projects, primarily under concession schemes, PPPs or public‑works contracts. Our experience includes legal structuring, contract design, financing, operation and maintenance. We work with developers, financial institutions and public authorities.
Urban and Social Infrastructure
We provide advice on key public‑infrastructure projects such as hospitals, treatment plants, dams, administrative centres and urban systems. We support both participation in tenders and contractual execution, compliance and dispute resolution.
Telecommunications
We advise on the development and investment in telecommunications networks, connectivity infrastructure and data centres. Our experience includes lease, construction, operation and financing agreements, as well as regulatory matters before authorities such as the IFT. We have participated in strategic projects involving fibre‑optic networks, towers and data centres.
We deliver integrated legal advice designed to address the technical, contractual, financial and regulatory challenges of each sector. Our practice works in close coordination with the firm’s tax, environmental, real‑estate, antitrust, labour and ESG teams, enabling us to cover the entire life‑cycle of each project with strategic vision.
Our multidisciplinary energy infrastructure team is one of the largest in Mexico and offers extensive experience that covers the electricity, hydrocarbons, roads, ports and aviation sectors, among others.
