Integrated approach

Business decisions do not arrive separated by legal specialty.

Setting up a plant, acquiring land or restructuring a corporate group are decisions that simultaneously involve corporate, tax, real estate and employment law. Entrusting each matter to a different firm multiplies costs, extends timelines and leaves gaps between one advisor and the next.

50%+ More than half of Mexico’s territory is social property (ejido or communal land). Any investor acquiring land in Mexico will, sooner or later, encounter agrarian law — and every transaction over that land carries tax consequences.

Nearshoring, land and taxes are therefore not three separate matters: they are dimensions of a single operation. Mendoza Salcedo Consultores was established precisely at that intersection, which few firms cover completely.

One strategy for operations that cross disciplines

  • Nearshoring setup: entity, tax regime, industrial site and compliance, in a single workflow
  • Land acquisition —including ejido-origin land— with its tax analysis and corporate vehicle from day one
  • Corporate restructurings with the tax consequence calculated before signing
  • Commercial contracts reviewed for their tax effects as well

The firm

More than a decade in practice. One guiding principle.

Mendoza Salcedo Consultores brings together attorneys and accountants with more than twelve years of uninterrupted professional practice since 2014, advising companies, investors and property owners across Mexico — from Guadalajara, Jalisco — in matters that cross corporate, tax, agrarian and real estate law.

The firm was founded on a simple principle: a company’s matters do not arrive classified by legal specialty, and its counsel should not be either. Every matter is examined simultaneously from the legal and the tax-accounting perspective, with direct attention from the firm’s principals in every case.
