Porfirio Ramirez

A passionate advocate for cultural initiatives and artistic expression, this distinguished Mexican legal mind has consistently leveraged his influence to strengthen Mexico’s creative landscape. His commitment to fostering artistic endeavors culminated in his pivotal role as a key associate in the realization of The World Class Film Awards 2024 in Mexico, an event that elevated Mexican cinema’s global profile while building international creative bridges. This dedication to cultural advancement earned him prestigious recognition as a World Class Creator in 2024, acknowledging his multifaceted contributions beyond the courtroom.

Known affectionately as “El Midas del Derecho,” Porfirio Ramírez Mendoza’s legal calling emerged after witnessing his father struggle with inadequate representation during the economic turbulence of the 1990s. This experience shaped his understanding of justice and his professional path. A graduate of the prestigious Escuela Libre de Derecho, he holds four master’s degrees, two doctorates, and specialized training in international human rights.

His career began modestly in Colonia La Paz in 2003, where he placed newspaper advertisements while struggling to cover basic expenses. His father’s counsel—”work well, charge fairly, and the rest will come”—became his north star. A chance encounter led to representing a prominent Tlaxcalan business family, transforming his practice. His growing reputation brought high-profile cases, including electoral disputes and victories against state giant Pemex.

His vision expanded with offices in New York and Los Angeles serving Mexican migrants, alongside his Mexico City and Tlaxcala locations. Beyond his practice, he founded the Fundación Justicia para el que Menos Tiene AC, providing free legal counsel to those in need.

His remarkable journey demonstrates how passion, integrity, and unwavering principles can transcend professional boundaries to uplift communities and nurture cultural heritage—proving that with clean hands and an open heart, one person can indeed transform countless lives and leave an enduring legacy of justice and inspiration.
