About

Provided by BVA – Barreto Veiga Advogados
Brazil: Transactional
Firm Overview

BVA – Barreto Veiga Advogados is one of Brazil’s most respected full-service law firms, with a practice strongly focused on business, strategy, and results.

We combine technical excellence with a practical market perspective to support clients in critical decisions, particularly in contexts involving growth, investment, transformation, disputes, and complex transactions.

Since 2019, we have ranked among the most active firms in the country according to Transactional Track Record (TTR) and are consistently recognised by leading global legal and transactional directories, including Chambers Global, Chambers Brazil, Legal 500, IFLR1000, Leaders League, among others.

Headquartered in São Paulo, with an office in Miami, we advise a broad portfolio of more than 1,300 clients across multiple industries and over 70 countries, including hundreds of market-leading companies in Brazil and abroad.

We represent entrepreneurs, business families, public and private companies, banks, investors, investment funds, and family offices in strategic negotiations, key decisions, and high-stakes disputes.

We have advised on more than 350 equity, debt, and private capital transactions, totalling over BRL 12 billion in M&A, private equity, venture capital, debt capital markets, capital markets, and restructuring deals, with strong experience in cross-border matters.

Our diverse client base and deep specialisation in strategic sectors of the economy allow us to fully understand the different interests, risks, dynamics, and perspectives involved in each matter, enabling us to deliver legal solutions that combine close client partnership, business insight, and a results-driven approach.

According to Chambers, “BVA is excellent and always available for complex and sensitive matters” and “stands out not only for its technical excellence, but also for its ability to lead high-impact transactions.”

We are certified by Great Place to Work and GPTW Diversity as one of the best companies to work for in Brazil.
