About

Provided by CGM Advogados

Our M&A practice is characterized by multidisciplinary work aligned to our clients’ business objectives.


The practice is managed by partners who have been working together for more than 25 years, with a team of associates who have accompanied them throughout this trajectory. With this history, the team operates in a cohesive manner and with an established culture of client service and agility. As a result, we have built long-lasting relationships with our clients, who entrust our firm with the stream of their most complex transactions, as well as their day-to-day activities in the corporate area.


With deep knowledge in several industries and market segments, our goal is to understand the dynamics of the businesses involved in M&A and joint venture transactions, so that we can strategically put forward the best legal solutions.


By assisting international clients of all sizes for many years, we have acquired the ability to clarify the complexity of the Brazilian legal system in an effective manner, while respecting the cultural differences of doing business in Brazil and other markets. Likewise, we support Brazilian companies in internationalization processes, relying on close relationships with leading law firms in several jurisdictions.
