About

Provided by BMA Advogados

We go beyond the traditional practice of labor and employment law to provide creative and innovative solutions that take an intelligent and integrated approach to representing businesses in individual and collective disputes.

Adopting the most advanced Labor and Employment Law practices, our specialized team is on top of the constant changes in employment legislation and case law. We support businesses with strategic legal advice on the full range of labor and employment issues, in addition to designing and conducting training sessions and seminars on a variety of topics.

Our experience in labor and employment law is known in the market: Litigation prevention, negotiation of collective agreements, drafting of agreements, negotiations with executives, and representation of clients in actions brought by individuals and unions, along with our advisory work on human resources issues. We look for solutions that address the various aspects of problems entrusted to us, working with BMA’s other practice areas to provide complete, efficient and personalized responses.

We offer quick and dynamic services that help clients resolve both routine and strategic matters, providing support to legal and HR departments.

With our country-wide network, in addition to our office in Brasília (which give us a greater presence in Brazil’s highest courts), we are especially active in the manufacturing, commercial and media sectors.
