Demonstrating equal strength in the representation of both lenders and borrowers, Campos Mello Advogados in cooperation with DLA Piper offers diversified banking and finance services to a multitude of Brazilian and international banks, investment and pension funds. Project, structured and corporate finance are core areas of expertise for the practice, which stands out for its cross-border capabilities. The arrival of former Veirano Advogados co-head Marcelo Mattos in September 2023 significantly boosted the team’s presence in the oil and gas, mining, telecoms and shipping industries; he is a key name to note for multilateral agencies and major international investment banks. Jorge Luiz Barbieri Gallo, who regularly assists with syndicated and bilateral loans, project finance, securitisations and trade finance, jointly oversees the team with Mattos. Roberto Barros is no longer at the firm.
