In 1863 he joined the Junta de Notables, which offered Maximilian the crown, and served as president of the Junta de Gobierno. The following year he was named Vicepresidente del Supremo Tribunal de Justicia del Imperio and Consejero de Gobierno. Under Maximilian, Lares served as Presidente del Consejo de Ministros and Ministro de Justicia. He was also part of the Junta de 35 Notables that refused to accept Maximilian's abdication.
