• The litigation area headed by Mr. García Macdonel, has provided his services to several factors in the Insurance and Bonding sector, among which stands out one of the largest insurance companies in the world, which he has sponsored in more than 500 commercial trials nationwide, as well as has sponsored more than 100 processes in criminal matters in various states of the republic, which makes him one of the most recognized lawyers in the Insurance and Bonding sector.
• One of the most significant matters that our litigation partner has resolved was that of a multi-insured who, shortly after taking out life insurance policies with eight insurance companies, died abruptly. The investigation conducted by our criminal litigation team led to the conclusion that this was a fraud to the detriment of the insurance companies. Due to the intervention of Mr. Garcia Macdonel, our client was able to avoid being charged a large amount of money for the sum insured. Due to the success of the investigation, the Mexican Association of Insurance Institutions (AMIS) organized a meeting for our litigation partner to present the case, which helped more companies to avoid the payment of a claim that was unjustified.
• Mr. Garcia Macdonel advised another of the largest insurance companies in the world in a matter arising from the use of a false document for the improper collection of a Life Insurance that had a sum insured of more than USD$5,000,000 (five million U.S. dollars). Within the documentation with which the beneficiary accompanied the claim, an altered death certificate was found. Based on the foregoing, Mr. García Macdonel filed a criminal complaint through which he not only obtained the suspension of the commercial lawsuit through which they intended to collect the insured amount, but also obtained that a Criminal Judge issued and executed an arrest warrant against the beneficiary who attempted to defraud the insurance company. This was part of an integral strategy in which the litigation areas in which Eliser specializes were combined.
• Our litigation partner advised a German auto parts company based in Tlaxcala, due to the fact that employees of the company, particularly in the accounting area, carried out several unjustified transfers to their payroll accounts. After the complaint was filed, a judge issued an arrest warrant against both employees, concluding the process with a conviction by which the company was repaired.
