Who we are

We are a Brazilian law firm committed to delivering ultra-personalized legal solutions, tailored to the complexity of the challenges faced by our clients. Our practice is grounded in technical excellence and the direct involvement of partners in each project, providing precise responses supported by strategic analysis and deep knowledge of the regulatory and business landscape.

Our areas of expertise include Tax Law, Corporate Law, Wealth and Estate Planning, Capital Markets, Investment Funds, Litigation, Arbitration, and Debt Restructuring — always with a focus on building consistent, legally secure solutions aligned with our clients’ business objectives.

We are internationally recognized for our high standards and bespoke approach, with rankings in leading legal publications such as Chambers and Partners, Leaders League, The Legal 500, Latin Lawyer, ITR, IFLR1000, Lexology, LACCA, and Análise Editorial.

As part of our strategic expansion, we established an institutional partnership with STG Law, based in Goiânia/GO. Through this alliance, we have extended our physical presence to Brazil’s Central-West region — particularly in the agribusiness sector — and added sector-specific expertise, strengthening our ability to deliver integrated and sophisticated solutions to clients operating at both national and international levels.
