For many years, Trench Rossi Watanabe has been assisting companies in the protection of their interests with preventive and litigation measures connected with corporate crimes, helping them to comply with Brazil’s environment, tax, and other corporate laws.

The Firm is in a privileged position by offering advise (including the definition of policies) in anti-money laundering and anti-corruption measures.

Additionally, its knowledge in internal investigations puts Trench Rossi in a unique position not only to assist the District Attorney and other law enforcement agencies in persecuting individuals who committed crimes against the companies, but also in locating and seizing their assets.

Another differential of the Firm is its Crisis Task Force, that encompasses lawyers prepared for all sort of dawn raids (antitrust, criminal, IP), sudden inspections (public health, controlled substances, environmental), and accidents (labour, frauds, strikes), thus making sure the client is fully advised and supported by the team.

During the last years, the White-Collar group also increased the work in pro bono, specially assisting families at risk in domestic violence cases.
