Ongoing market liberalization and favorable commercial agreements executed with other countries have resulted in a wave of mergers and acquisitions in Brazil. However, expanding through alliances can be complex, since no agreement follows a defined pattern.
How to structure a transaction in a fast and efficient manner? What protections should be established for the parties involved?
At Trench Rossi Watanabe, we understand that each transaction is unique. Issues related to mergers, acquisitions, and other transactions vary according to the company and sector. Whether the client is the buyer or the seller, our purpose is to help carry out the transaction efficiently and effectively, as well as to increase the value of the business.
As a preparatory act to provide our services, our professionals seek to be up to date with the sectors in which our clients operate, as well as with their objectives and main concerns.
For more than 60 years, we have advised national and foreign companies in the execution of successful business in Brazil and abroad. Our lawyers can advise foreign companies doing business in Brazil for the first time on complex Brazilian tax, labor, and environmental laws. We can assist our clients in promoting their success in sectors where we have identified specific restrictions on foreign investors, such as the agricultural, communications, health and transportation sectors.
We assist Brazilian companies in expanding their activities abroad through our cooperation with Ablfs McKfnzif, with locations in more than 40 countries. Our approach to all business is comprehensive and we can carry out legal audits to uncover concealed liabilities. We structure transactions to put our clients in the best legal position and assist them in complying with regulatory requirements.
