About Us
Our Story
CORPORATIVO MOCTEZUMA S.C. started as a company in 2005 when Lic. Perla P Vázquez Moctezuma (also known as Perla Bednarz) began offering various legal services in Tapachula, Chiapas, Mexico. With immigration being a matter of special relevance for this city (which borders Guatemala), Perla became especially interested in immigration issues. She went on to complete social service and professional practices with the National Institute of Immigration (INM). Subsequently she pursued and gained employment with INM in the position of “Local Chief in Talisman” (Talisman is a border crossing point) beginning in 2007. Later she advanced to “Deputy Director of Control and Verification” of the Siglo XXI Immigration Station (the largest in all of Mexico). Also in the INM of Chiapas she temporarily held the position “Head of the INM Regional Delegation”. Throughout this time she completed courses and earned diplomas in immigration and human rights.

Our story
As expected, the pace of work there was very hectic, and as a single mother of two, Perla requested a change to a place with a calmer pace; resulting in her assignment to Bahías de Huatulco, Oaxaca as local chief (2009).
Here Perla begins to excel and gain notice as being an official who always seeks to help foreigners in the best possible way, quickly earning the esteem of many. Due to a series of unexpected events, Perla has to resign from the INM. Finding herself at this crossroads, she decides to reactivate the independent business she had started a few years back, CORPORATIVO MOCTEZUMA S.C, this time drawing upon the experience gained during her time at INM, and doing what she is most passionate about: helping foreigners with their immigration procedures, this time as an independent adviser.
Over time her business grows during years of effort and dedication, and Perla decides to involve her children María and Luis (and recently her son-in-law Fernando) transmitting to them her passion and the knowledge she has acquired through her years of experience.
Perla has now left Mexico as her country of residence (for personal reasons), leaving María in charge of the business, who re-named it "MOCTEZUMA: IMMIGRATION AND DOCUMENTATION ADVISERS". It should be noted that María and the other members of the team have been trained by Perla, and she continues advising them remotely, in such a way that we continue to be known for having a high success rate with the immigration and other legal documentation processes we undertake, and for maintaining solid relationships with the authorities of the INM and our clients whom we thank for their support, trust and loyalty.
