JULIAN MYERS
Julian Myers is a partner at Higgs, Fletcher & Mack. He is a graduate of Universidad Anhuac
in Mexico City, the University of San Diego Law School and the European Union
Law at Magdalen College, Oxford, in the United Kingdom. Myers is truly unique in his
ability to bridge the gap between Mexico and San Diego, which has proven to be crucial in
cross-border business and San Diego’s community relations. As a lawyer licensed to practice
in both Mexico and California, he focuses on business, corporate and real estate law. His
representation goes beyond his firm and clients and, given his bi-cultural background, he is
especially valuable in understanding differences and handling matters that often arise in
cross-border transactions in both language and culture. He recently worked through a lengthy
process with multiple agencies and groups on both sides of the border to get a child returned
to his parents. He assisted a U.K. client with the acquisition, financing and resale of a $5
million restaurant property in Encinitas and also assisted a San Diego client with the formation
of Mexican entities, the acquisition of a $40 million development company in Baja
California, and ongoing legal matters relating to the protection and development of the property.
He is involved with the San Diego River Park Foundation and Together for Charity, a
nonprofit that makes sure orphanages in Tijuana get the support that they need. Before moving
to San Diego, Myers was an associate at one of Mexico’s oldest law firms, Noriega y Escobedo,
in Mexico City.
