We are proud to share the chapter that our partner Montserrat Manzano and our associate Rodrigo Macin co-wrote, along with Pedro José Izquierdo and Sophie Kivett from Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, for the Mexico Chapter in Global Arbitration Review’s Construction Arbitration Know-How.

The chapter provides an overview of relevant aspects of construction arbitration under the Mexican legal system, including contract formation, the choice of governing law, seat and language of arbitration, implied terms, the role of certifiers, causes of delay and disruption, force majeure and hardship, among other topics.
