Alongside its transactional capabilities, the group offers general corporate law advice and has a presence across a range of industries, such as manufacturing, pharma, and technology, to name a few. At the helm of the practice is Carolina Taunay Joop, who comes ‘particularly recommended’ for her aptitude in acting for investors, shareholders, and publicly held corporations on M&A and commercial agreements. Tiago Cunha excels in corporate transactions and restructurings, while Bruno Ottoni focuses on corporate law and contractual matters. Former practice head Fabiana Rodrigues de Fonseca is no longer at the firm.
