Mattos Filho has a ‘highly qualified’ insurance team of ‘top-notch lawyers’. Practitioners regularly ‘deal with complex issues, and deliver smart and strategic solutions’, particularly on the non-contentious side, where the team has a good track record on related M&A and strategic partnership agreements. The firm has been particularly active in supporting insurers in setting up digital distribution channels. Key partners include Marcelo Mansur Haddad ‘one of the most respected lawyers in the Brazilian insurance and reinsurance market’, and Camila Leal Calais, who is active in transactional and regulatory matters, and singled out for her understanding of insurtechs. Following the December 2022 departure of Cassio Gama Amaral and Thomaz Kastrup , Thais Arza Monteiro is now the lead contact for contentious matters.
