Our clients speak for us

I am an international investor who was searching for property in Tulum. Nervous about the process and all of the inconsistent information I read on-line about buying in Mexico, I hired Trust Riviera Law to advise and coach me through the process, draft contracts and manage negotiations with developers. The entire process went much better than I had anticipated and I became comfortable with the overall process. A few months later, I was struggling to complete a deal in Cabo San Lucas where I only used local agents. Communication barriers were delaying the process between developers, notary, escrow, and agents. Ready to abandon the deal, I hired Trust Riviera Law to help me navigate through the issues and manage the process to a final closing. Trust Riviera Law was able to bring all parties together to learn where the gaps and issues were. Then they drafted new contracts, orchestrated the process between developers, escrow and notary, and we managed to close the deal shortly thereafter. I consider Trust Riviera Law an important part of my team now.
Richard Pierro
Investor, USA.
My wife and I entered into a purchase agreement for a home in Playa Del Carmen. We were in need of a quality lawyer to represent us and review the purchase agreement. we received a referral to Trust Riviera Law. This turned out to be one of the best decisions we made for our purchase. As we ran into contract complications and items that needed to be covered more thoroughly, Trust Riviera Law, was outstanding in caring for and representing our interests. The purchase process ended up taking longer than anticipated but Trust Riviera Law stuck to their commitment and followed through with everything they committed to. I highly recommend Trust Riviera Law and believe the word “trust” in their name is a very accurate description of their services.
