Zonenschein´s Law Firm deals with some of the country's largest disputes, such as the recent judicial settlement where the firm led an agreement between its client, Banco Safra, a major player who opposed the terms of the settlment, and the Americanas Group. Zonenschein is also at the center of a legal dispute over intellectual property between Osklen and Caetano Veloso, defending the fashion brand´s right to claim aesthetic elements of the famous Brazilian late sixties “Tropicalia movement”. In this case, the Law firm acted to effectively prevent the granting of an injunction to suspend the marketing of Osklens fashion collection. The firm’s positive results are one of the main reasons for its growth and reputation in the market.
The firm’s practice takes place mainly before the courts of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, where their largest clients are located, but the firm also acts in other states, such as Pernambuco, Rio Grande do Sul, Minas Gerais and others.
The area of litigation focuses not only on commercial and civil litigation but also on the prevention of conflicts and arbitration procedures. The firm is known for its multidisciplinary performance in multidisciplinary litigation, serving clients from the most important sectors of the economy, such as energy and steel (representing CSN, the Major Brazilian steel production conglomerate in its strategic matters), Media& Entertainment, fashion, tourism, and real estate.
Besides representing Companhia Siderurgica Nacional, the firm also represents major economic conglomerates like Whirlpool S.A and Gerdau Aços Longos in Court in the biggest disputes in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.
