Galeana Arzate Abogados
Based in Mexico City, I handle amparo, civil, family, and administrative law cases across the country. I work with clients in Mexico as well as with Mexican nationals living in the United States.
Licensed attorney, cédula profesional 13201966. Bilingual, C1 English.
A stalled process, a dispute with a government authority, a contract that needs review before you sign it — I handle your case with the seriousness of an established Mexico City practice.
A pending inheritance, a property to sell, an urgent power of attorney, a family member who needs legal representation — I handle your matter in Mexico so you don't have to travel.
When a government authority violates your rights, the amparo is the constitutional remedy under Mexican law to challenge it.
Inheritances, contracts, property, leases, and disputes between private parties.
Child support, divorce, and other matters involving the family.
Permits, licenses, and disputes with government agencies.
Tariffs, imports, and exports between Mexico and the United States — for businesses and goods crossing the border.
A client faced the dismissal of his indirect amparo against a public hospital. Rather than stopping there, we filed a recurso de queja (appeal) before the Collegiate Tribunal.
The tribunal ruled unanimously in his favor, reversing the original decision.
My full legal name is Mauricio Yael Galeana Arzate, though I go by Mauricio Galeana Arzate professionally. I started in the legal field in 2018, as a law clerk at the firm Ortiz, Hernández y Orendain, and spent five years litigating civil, commercial, family, and administrative cases before opening my own practice in Mexico City. My C1 English (TOLES Advanced, LSE Legal English) lets me work with the same clarity for a client in Polanco as for one in Houston.
