A: You might consult with the Mexican Consulate in Los Angeles to get information on where you can go for assistance. Most likely you will be referred to a lawyer in Mexico near where the property is located. You should be very careful if you look for a lawyer in Mexico on your own. My advice is to talk to the Mexican Consulate and get the best advice they can give you to get a start. Good luck.
