What Our Clients Say
“We are very satisfied with the level of competence and experience of MCOY, who are up to date with all legal regulations and communications with the relevant Mexican authorities. Although the firm's main focus is legal, Eduardo always provides valuable business advice by understanding the client's needs.”
“MCOY's dual-edged expertise in the contentious and non-contentious trademark spheres really pays off; the team has a demanding perspective when it comes to trademark management and, as such, they stand out for guaranteeing long-term protection…”
“Boutique firm MCOY Abogados provides its national and international clients with a wide range of IP services, gaining recognition for its 'strong trademark and IP litigation practice' which, for some, places it as 'one of the best firms in Mexico'. The team is led by partners Alejandro Cárdenas, who primarily handles all kinds of IP litigation while also having a strong trademark prosecution practice, and Eduardo Miravete, who handles administrative litigation and manages the trademark registration and IP portfolio management area.”
“The Mcoy team is very dedicated and sensitive to the services clients demand, always looking at IP issues from a different angle. Eduardo, partner of the firm, has great experience in managing trademark portfolios excellently and provides very special and creative legal advice when thinking about strategies to resolve litigation cases and/or prevent intellectual property litigation. Mcoy understands the client's objectives.”
“Entrepreneurs need real allies, who provide simple yet powerful and quantifiable comprehensive solutions. Mcoy has understood and accompanied this process, which is why they are our first recommendation to clients and business allies.”
“Eduardo has collaborated with us since our founding (2009), he has extensive experience as an advisor to multi-level companies, he helped us develop an adequate strategy to protect our trademark portfolio in the United States and LATAM; internally we consider him a strategic partner rather than a legal advisor.”
“At Pisa Farmacéutica, trademarks constitute an extremely relevant asset, so we are constantly implementing growth and defense strategies. In these administrative and contentious scenarios, MCOY IP Abogados has acted as a guide and ally, not only supporting us by representing us in trademark lawsuits, but also in the search, acquisition and administration of trademarks around the world.”
“It is a pleasure to work with MCOY Abogados, both for the clarity, speed and reliability that identifies and characterizes them, and for the professional capacity of its members.”
