We are considered one of the largest law firms in Brazil, with comprehensive and deep expertise in all areas of law. Founded in 1959, our Firm provides legal services to local and international clients from a wide range of markets, helping them conduct their business in an ethical and efficient manner.

With offices in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia and Porto Alegre, we have around 200 lawyers who provide our clients with the knowledge and confidence to deal with Brazil’s laws, legal systems and unique business practices.

We have vast experience in complex and pioneering aspects of transactions, having developed skills that go beyond borders while always maintaining rigor regarding technical quality, ethics and efficiency.

We have a solid governance structure. This ensures agility, control and transparency in decision making, in addition to reducing operational risks and noise between areas and processes. We have an executive committee composed of three senior partners responsible for the Firm’s management. It is and supported by a general director, who in turn is responsible for administrative functions (staff). We also have an independent Compliance and Internal Legal team, which assists the Firm with compliance issues related to internal structures and clients. This team is responsible for risk management as well as for ensuring business ethics.
