Broad experience in cross-border transactions
Demarest is responsible for important domestic and cross-border transactions in a wide range of areas of business activities, especially those relating to mergers and acquisitions, project and structured finance, banking, securities, infrastructure, as well as concessions and privatizations.
Our lawyers are familiarized with practicing at an international level very early in their careers, through secondment programs at global law firms or LL.Ms in leading universities in Europe and the US.
International relationships
We maintain close ties with leading law firms which enables access to top-tier local expertise in every single jurisdiction. Besides certifying Demarest’s global service quality, these affiliations provides an extensive network of cooperation and sharing of information with all member law firms and enables Demarest to take on the most challenging cross-border international transactions and litigation cases.
Chambers Review
Demarest Advogados has an appealing practice for clients and law firms in other jurisdictions looking for an experienced partner in international work. The firm has a broad practice, with credible expertise across a wide range of transactional and contentious areas, and serves a wide range of multinational banks, insurers and energy companies in furthering their business interests in Brazil.
The firm's track record in cross-border M&A is central to this appeal, and the practice has assisted as local counsel on a long line of cross-border acquisitions. Demarest has experience acting for Brazilian companies that are the target of foreign investment and in other instances of advising foreign acquirers on Brazilian law issues, and it is recognised for its focused teams advising on inbound investment from China, Korea and Spain. Other areas of strength in the international space include the firm's international trade practice, which is among the leaders in the country.
