ADMINISTRATIVE LAW
Administrative Litigation Lawyers in Mexico
Strategic Regulatory Defense for Businesses Operating in Mexico
Protecting Companies in High-Stakes Administrative Proceedings
Businesses operating in Mexico face an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
Government investigations, administrative inspections, compliance audits, and regulatory sanctions can significantly affect a company’s operations, financial stability, and reputation.
At Zozaya e Ibáñez, we represent domestic and international businesses in sophisticated administrative litigation, government investigations, and regulatory enforcement proceedings before Mexico’s principal administrative authorities.
Our attorneys combine deep litigation experience with industry-specific regulatory knowledge to help clients prevent, manage, and challenge government actions.
Administrative Litigation Focused on Business Continuity
Administrative disputes require much more than procedural knowledge.
They require lawyers who understand the regulatory objectives behind each investigation, the commercial implications of enforcement actions, and the operational realities facing modern businesses.
Our legal strategies are designed not only to challenge unlawful government actions, but also to protect business continuity, preserve commercial relationships, and reduce long-term regulatory risk.

We regularly advise companies regarding:
• Administrative Appeals
• Nullity Actions
• Constitutional Proceedings (Amparo)

• Administrative Penalties

Our attorneys represent clients before numerous Mexican regulatory authorities.
Regulatory Authorities
Our firm has extensive experience advising companies in matters involving:
• PROFECO
• COFEPRIS
• STPS
• CONDUSEF
• PROFEPA
• Federal and State Administrative Authorities
Each authority presents unique procedural and regulatory challenges.
For that reason, our attorneys develop customized legal strategies specifically tailored to each regulatory framework.
PROFECO Compliance and Consumer Protection
One of our firm’s most recognized practice areas involves representing businesses before PROFECO.
Rather than approaching the consumer protection authority as an adversary, we help companies establish constructive regulatory relationships while protecting their commercial interests.
Our services include:
• Consumer investigations
• Administrative procedures
• Adhesion Contract Registration
• Official Standard (NOM) compliance
• Consumer claims
• Administrative litigation
• Regulatory counseling
• Defense against administrative penalties
This preventive approach frequently reduces enforcement risks while strengthening customer confidence.
COFEPRIS Regulatory Counsel
Regulatory matters involving COFEPRIS require specialized legal knowledge extending beyond administrative law.
Our multidisciplinary team advises companies operating in regulated industries regarding:
• Health Regulatory Compliance
• Product Registrations
• DIGIPRIS Procedures

• Regulatory Audits
• Administrative Sanctions
• Product Labeling
• Regulatory Investigations

Several members of our legal team possess advanced specialization in health regulatory law and have direct experience with COFEPRIS procedures, allowing us to provide practical guidance that integrates legal strategy with regulatory compliance.
Administrative Fines Defense
Administrative penalties often have significant financial and operational consequences.
Our attorneys develop sophisticated legal strategies to challenge unlawful fines through:
• Administrative Appeals
• Nullity Actions
• Constitutional Litigation
• Judicial Review
• Strategic Negotiation
Every matter begins with a detailed legal assessment designed to identify procedural defects, evidentiary issues, and substantive legal arguments that may support the client’s position.
Regulatory Compliance Programs
Preventing government enforcement actions is frequently more valuable than defending them.
Our attorneys design comprehensive compliance programs addressing:
• Internal regulatory policies
• Documentation protocols
• Government inspection readiness

• Preventive legal reviews
These programs help organizations reduce regulatory exposure while strengthening operational confidence.
