Lawyer Rankings
Brazil > Energy and natural resources > Mining
Rated as one of the top mining and metals practices in the country, Cescon Barrieu is singled out for its ‘deep knowledge of the sector‘, which makes it well placed to advise on the full array of mandates, ranging from consequential M&A and financing deals to administrative and judicial proceedings. The Belo Horizonte-based team is the first port of call for some of the largest mining companies operating in Brazil and several financial institutions. Crisis management matters and tailing dams-related regulatory issues are other core areas of focus. With over 30 years’ experience in the industry, Marcelo Mendo Gomes De Souza is a reference in the mining market. He oversees the practice with regulatory and transactional expert Maurício Pellegrino De Souza, whose previous in-house and academic experience is noteworthy; Paula Azevedo De Castro, who is regularly instructed by key mining players in relation to mining dam regulations; and Daniel Ribeiro Pettersen, a contact for real estate and mining contractual matters. Senior associate João Raso regularly works on tax issues and mining assets transactions.

Major domestic and international investors and developers turn to the group for assistance in mandates concerning key urban and rural asset classes, including residential, retail, commercial offices, and logistics sites. With extensive experience in real estate transactions and the development of residential and commercial projects, São Paulo-based Marcos Lopes Prado leads the team with Daniel Ribeiro Pettersen in Belo Horizonte.
