Powerful Mexico City Environmental Lawyers

Since its founding in 1994, CCN has built a practice emphasizing international business transactions in the United States, Mexico and Latin America. The firm was founded by Rene Cacheaux, Daniel Cavazos and Joseph B. Newton with initial offices in San Antonio, the Rio Grande Valley and Mexico City. These three experienced lawyers had worked for years representing clients from all over the world in complex business transactions and related legal issues in Mexico and the United States. As commercial ties between the United States and Mexico grew, so did the firm. CCN now has law firms in Mexico in six locations, to complement its Texas law practice in San Antonio and McAllen. CCN now employs more than forty professionals in both the United States and Mexico.
