About

Provided by Pinheiro Neto Advogados

With deep knowledge of the environmental regulations and the ability to anticipate problems and risks, we work to generate value to our clients under a complex regulatory environment that includes investigations, administrative and judicial proceedings, mainly of collective nature.

By providing a multidisciplinary approach for advisory and litigation matters, due diligences, and support to strategic environmental topics, we orchestrate legal solutions of excellence to face current legal challenges.

In the regulatory area, we offer advice within the scope of the Brazilian Forestry Code, the National Policy on Climate Change, the Pesticides Law, the Seed Law, the Biosafety Law, among several other legal frameworks at federal, state and municipal level.

We have a long history of work with the Brazilian Environment and Renewable Natural Resources Institute (Ibama), the National Technical Biosafety Commission (CTNBio), the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Public Prosecution Office.

We assist multilateral bodies and are pioneer in joint actions between public agencies and the private sector in the search for solutions to environmental liabilities.

In addition to advisory and litigation matters typical of environmental regulations, we assist our clients in issues related to occupational and safety health, climate changes, sustainability, biotechnology, energy, urban planning and human rights, and environmental damages, and violations of environmental standards.
