Greenberg Traurig has launched a labor and employment practice in Mexico City with the addition of a legal team poached from Holland & Knight.

The practice will be led by Leslie Palma, who joins the firm as a shareholder, and Marité Villanueva, who joined in October as of counsel. Palma jumped from Holland & Knight’s Mexico office with six associates. Villanueva came from Lottus Education, where she was in-house counsel overseeing human resources and labor matters.
