Peixoto e Cury Advogados
Labour law is at the core of Peixoto e Cury Advogados, which fields an ‘extremely innovative’ team that handles collective and individual claims, occupational health and safety issues, risk assessments and internal training. Luiz Vicente De Carvalho boasts almost 50 years of experience in this space, and is singled out for his strong track record in complex litigation, while Antonio Carlos Aguiar oversees consulting matters. Marcel Tadeu Alves Da Silva is another key contact for non-contentious issues, including executive compensation and collective bargaining. Poliana Banqueri da Silva Guimarães handles a variety of labour mandates, including crisis management and investigations. Gisela da Silva Freire, the former co-head of Cescon Barrieu's labour practice, joined the firm in June 2023. Carlos Eduardo Dantas da Costa and André Villac Polinesio are no longer at the firm.
