Brazil

Our work in Brazil and for Brazilian clients has grown considerably. It is now one of our fastest growing jurisdictions, a reflection both of the country's rapid economic growth as well as our focus on winning business from South America generally.

Our dispute resolution and corporate teams in particular are currently advising clients on a number of high profile cases. These include acting for the Government of Brazil and the City of Sao Paulo in relation to alleged corruption by the former mayor of Sao Paulo.

We have also forged strong relationships with a number of high quality South American law firms.
