At Siqueira Castro – Advogados, the energy department has the ability to assist in a wide range of conventional and renewable power matters, but particularly excels in regulatory proceedings and administrative litigation before ANEEL. The practice experienced a change in leadership following the departure of David Waltenberg in October 2022. It is now jointly led by two partners: Eduardo Evangelista, a name to note for generation, transmission and trading companies seeking advice on compliance, as well as administrative and judicial disputes; and Humberto Negrão, who focuses on public law matters. Pedro Monti Schönberger stands out at the associate level for his experience in regulatory matters, including CCEE’s trading rules and Brazil’s national grid operator ONS’s grid procedures.
