Machado, Meyer, Sendacz e Opice, Consumer Law

About

Provided by Machado, Meyer, Sendacz e Opice

The firm has a strong background in representing companies in consumer issues in the areas of healthcare and pharmaceuticals, the food and beverage industry and electronic products, among others, dealing, for example, with their distribution, pricing, packaging, publicity and sales. The firm has also consistently represented local and foreign companies in the automotive industry in matters such as recalls, dealership networks, technical assistance, maintenance and distribution, among other consumer-related issues.

Our knowledge on regulatory affairs is a key factor to deal with these types of cases, particularly in specialized areas such as aviation, in which we assist national and international companies in their consumer issues and often deal with the specificities of regulated markets in Brazil (including rules in Consumer Law).

Machado Meyer’s Consumer Law practice keeps growing and broadening its range of activities over the previous years. In recent years, our practice has also specialized in Data Privacy Protection laws, given that it is intertwined with Consumer Law in many aspects. In this regard, we have assisted clients with questions related to the new Brazilian Data Privacy Protection Law, enacted in August 2018, in preparation for a future trend of consumer litigation in this regard.
