TozziniFreire Advogados

Since 1976, TozziniFreire has distinguished itself as a premier, full-service law firm by consistently providing legal services to domestic and international companies in a wide variety of business sectors. Over the years it has played a major role in many of the most significant transactions in the Brazilian market.

While being the youngest firm among the major legal players in Latin America, TozziniFreire has also enjoyed the fastest growth. Its obsession in delivering results for clients has driven this development and differentiated the firm in the legal industry.

Another major reason for this rapid growth and consistent success – and another major point of pride to everyone at TozziniFreire – is a demonstrated record as Brazil’s leading innovator when it comes to evaluating what the firm does and how it can do better, improving the way it works for clients, developing and expanding its expertise, becoming more efficient and cost-effective in the way it delivers services.

To attract and retain top talent, TozziniFreire selects the best professionals available, and continuously invests in skills development, training, special courses and internships in Brazil and abroad. Its development programmes are dedicated to expanding the practical business education of its lawyers, enabling them to serve as knowledgeable and effective business consultants.

TozziniFreire sees itself as one cohesive entity and acts accordingly. With fully owned offices in several cities in Brazil, the firm is able to guarantee its clients the same outstanding services and one-firm resource throughout the country. This concept enables the firm to safeguard its culture, mission and values.

The firm has extensive experience in assisting international companies in setting up their enterprises or ventures in Brazil. Its areas of specialisation include corporate transactions, publicly held companies, civil and commercial litigation, white-collar crimes, arbitration, international and local contracts, international trade, import and export, corporate finance, project finance, banking, capital and financial market transactions, restructuring and insolvency, mergers and acquisitions, antitrust, taxation, securities law, intellectual property, sustainability, corporate image management, compliance, film, media & entertainment, sports law, real estate, environmental law, labour relations, immigration, and public and administrative law. Its industry-focused groups include: insurance and reinsurance, financial institutions, telecommunications, agribusiness, oil & gas, energy, bioenergy/ethanol, life sciences, climate changes and carbon market, water and sewage, toll roads, mining and information technology. The firm has also created a 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games group, which is ready to assist any company interested in participating in these major global events.

To help the clients respond faster and more effectively to the increasing business opportunities between Brazil and both key existing trade partners and specific fast-growing economies, TozziniFreire was one of the pioneers to create foreign practice groups in Latin America, staffed with professionals familiar with the culture, legal and business practices of major trade and investment destinations, such as China, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Nordic countries and Portuguese-language countries.
