Regulatory Law

Change in regulations is constant because of economic, political, and legal factors. We closely monitor the changes to clarify obstacles, create strategies, and navigate the regulatory maze. We drill into the specifics of the regulations because the best business ideas still need to meet restrictions.

To ensure a full-service operation for our intellectual property clients, Olivares & Cia. has expanded the firm in the past decade to include Regulatory Law. This was a natural progression given our firm’s specialized background and history. 

This intricate area of law poses massive challenges for our clients and we help them tackle these challenges to meet strict regulatory requirements concerning their products and services -- food, beverages, media, pesticides, medicine, and biotechnology.  

Additionally, Olivares & Cia. counsels corporations and trade associations on lobbying strategies regarding the creation, adjusting, and implementing of laws, regulations, and procedures. With our technical background and deep knowledge base, along with many of our attorneys having studied US and European regulatory systems, we have been instrumental in changing the regulatory requirements for many products in Mexico. 

The firm’s Regulatory Law team can help you obtain the required authorizations and licenses mandated by federal, state, and local government authorities.
