Atendimento personalizado e soluções sob medida, garantimos que você terá uma representação legal em todas as etapas do seu processo.
REPRESENTATION OF FOREIGN INVESTOR PARTNERS
Brazilian legislation requires that foreign investors enlist an attorney with specific powers to represent and assume responsibility for their business ventures in the country.
Serving as legal representatives, we play a pivotal role in interactions with government bodies, tax authorities, legal advisors, accountants, and financial institutions. Our commitment ensures an ethical, reliable, and proactive engagement throughout all processes. Additionally, we handle the reception of judicial and extrajudicial summonses, notifications, and communications, promptly forwarding them to the client's legal or financial representatives.
If you are a foreign investor seeking a comprehensive representation of your interests in Brazil, reach out to us today to initiate a trustworthy and successful partnership.
SUBSIDIARY OR BRANCH ADMINISTRATION
We provide the option to designate one of our partners as a director for your subsidiary or branch, guaranteeing compliance with corporate governance and regulatory standards in line with both local and foreign regulations.
Our team assists clients in commercial affairs, ensuring that your company is well-prepared to conduct operations in Brazil efficiently and in an organized manner. If you are a foreign investor seeking a company to represent and manage your business effectively, reach out to us today to learn more about our tailored solutions.

The official tax address is specified in the company's documentation. For service-oriented companies, choosing a São Paulo address allows them to utilize our well-equipped workspace, complete with furnished rooms and a networking area.
Foreign investors can rely on our effective solutions for the representation and management of their companies.
STRATEGIC CONNECTIONS
Drawing on more than two decades of experience in legal representation across a wide range of sectors in Brazil, we have cultivated an extensive network of contacts. This network not only enhances business opportunities by providing access to exclusive information but also streamlines interactions with pertinent negotiations and organizations.
Through these strategic partnerships, we can deliver a highly effective service to our clients, leveraging local expertise and global reach. This approach allows us to achieve specialized results and stand out in the dynamic Brazilian business landscape.
COMPLIANCE
We assist our clients with monitoring, managing, and ensuring corporate regulatory compliance. This involves the implementation of internal controls, policies, and procedures to guarantee adherence to local, state, and federal laws, as well as third-party guidelines.
Our collaboration with legal consultants, accountants, and auditors involves conducting investigations and audits related to regulatory and compliance issues. Additionally, we are responsible for signing documents and addressing information requests from regulatory agencies.
CONSORTIUMS, PUBLIC TENDERS, AND INTERNATIONAL AUCTIONS
Foreign companies participating in public procurement in Brazil must register on the electronic bidding platform, providing information about the legal representative in Brazil with explicit powers to receive summonses and respond administratively or judicially. We have been representing foreign bidders for more than ten years.
International companies should anticipate significant improvements, including standardizing bidding deadlines, implementing electronic bidding processes, publishing government proposals on a national procurement portal, and offering more flexibility in access and equality for foreigners regarding required documentation. The overall objective is to align public bids at the federal, state, and municipal levels with WTO and international standards.

With our extensive expertise and advanced tools, we proactively identify and address potential risks. We'll assist you in demonstrating that your company adheres to regulations and best practices as per required legal standards. In doing so, we'll help you mitigate any risks associated with your business and ensure that engaging with your company poses minimal risk.
Our support extends to overseeing and managing regulatory compliance throughout your business structure. We actively contribute to corporate compliance initiatives by implementing internal controls, formulating policies and procedures for compliance with local, state, and federal laws, regulations, and third-party guidelines. Furthermore, we collaborate closely with legal advisors, accountants, and auditors in conducting audits and investigations related to regulatory and compliance matters. Additionally, we take charge of signing essential documents and responding to information requests from regulatory bodies.
