Know your RIGHTS. A
must for your travel to Mexico!
Barbara Strickland, who for 18 years has worked
as a legal advisor to the Mexican Ministry of
Foreign Relations, the Mexican Consulate General
in San Diego and other Mexican government agencies,
has recently published the Survival
Guide to the Mexican Legal System ©.
This guide is written in plain language for business
people, retirees, insurance adjusters and visitors
to Mexico who need a basic introduction to Mexican
law and the Mexican legal system.
The Table of Contents covers such topics
as:
* The Mexican Constitution
* The Civil Code
* The Amparo
* Rights of foreigners in Mexico
* Visas for travel to and living in Mexico
* Land ownership
* Commercial matters and foreign investment
* Mexican labor law
* Civil and criminal procedure
* Marriage, divorce and child custody
* Major treaties
* Damage limits for accidents
Throughout the guide there are special practical
tips and the address, telephone numbers and Internet
pages of many Mexican government agencies.
The practical tips are simple and direct. For
example, on the subject of political activity,
the Guide recommends: Foreigners should avoid
participating in protests or demonstrations (even
if they are against the United States), taking
part in political campaigns or publicly expressing
opinions on how the country is run.
The Guide also dispels common misunderstandings
about Mexican law, for example: "You are
not considered guilty until proven innocent."
There is a six-step list for taking your car to
Mexico, accompanied by a special practical tip,
known only by someone with extensive experience
in Mexico.
The Survival Guide to the Mexican Legal
System © offers all this and more
in concise, simple English
