Freitas Ferraz Advogados’ corporate and M&A practice, led by Bernardo Freitas and Adriano Ferraz, handles a range of mandates, including M&A, corporate restructurings, corporate litigation, and commercial contracts. Despite its relatively recent establishment in 2016, the team has amassed a robust client base from various industries and continues to attract new clients, predominantly from the energy, mining, and financial services sectors. The practice maintains a strong presence in the Belo Horizonte market and is capable of undertaking complex work which involves foreign jurisdictions. Both Freitas and Ferraz have expertise in domestic and cross-border transactions, corporate restructuring, mutual investment funds, private equity, and venture capital deals. Another key member of the group is associate Juliana Marcincowski, who concentrates on corporate transactions in the technology, steelmaking, and healthcare industries.
