What Martínez, Algaba, de Haro y Curiel does

Martínez, Algaba, de Haro y Curiel is a Mexican law firm founded in 1969, headquartered in Las Lomas, Mexico City, specializing in two practice areas: dispute resolution (litigation) and corporate restructuring. The firm operated as a focused specialist boutique, staffed by seven partners and more than 50 associates, lawyers, and other personnel, serving sophisticated corporate clients with complex legal controversies and restructuring mandates. Its value proposition centered on first-tier litigation and restructuring expertise delivered through partner-led engagements typical of Mexican professional-services legal practice.

The firm generated revenue through professional legal services billed on an engagement basis to corporate clients requiring complex dispute and restructuring counsel; pricing and fee structures were not publicly disclosed. There is no evidence of a software, SaaS, or technology product layer — the offering is purely human-judgment-based legal advisory work with no disclosed AI, data, or platform technology components. Customer logos, specific industries served, and revenue concentration data are not provided in the source material.

In Q1 2025, Martínez, Algaba, de Haro y Curiel entered a combination agreement with Creel, García-Cuéllar, Aiza y Enríquez, one of Mexico's most established law firms (founded 1936). Under the deal, all seven partners and the 50+ associates, lawyers, and staff joined Creel, creating what the parties describe as the leading dispute resolution team in Mexico and consolidating Creel as the country's largest multidisciplinary law firm. The combined platform integrates the Martínez Algaba team's litigation and restructuring capabilities alongside Creel's transactional, tax, and regulatory practices, with offices in Mexico City, Monterrey, and Madrid. The firm therefore no longer operates as an independent entity; its capabilities are now delivered through the Creel platform.
