BMA is regarded as one of the premier corporate practices in Brazil, with leading M&A and merger control practices. Its work in this area involves a multitude of cross-border deals, and the firm is known to take a lead on outbound matters for Brazilian clients expanding abroad, as well as being Brazilian counsel of choice for numerous international law firms with cross-border work involving the jurisdiction.
One of BMA's founders, Dominique Bétourné Walter, has previously practised in Paris, a significant global channel for the firm's international work involving cross-border activity with France. The law firm hosts a French desk staffed by lawyers across its offices in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro which advises French investors on inbound investments into Brazilian entities, particularly in regard to M&A activity and energy projects. The law firm is also able to advise clients in multiple languages, with most of its lawyers able to communicate in Spanish and English as well as Portuguese.
