‘Guilherme Ohanian Monteiro was helpful beyond expectation and managed the matter on an outstanding level. ’
‘A major differentiator at Veiranos Advogados is that the team, in addition to in-depth legal knowledge, goes deep into understanding the context and market of each transaction. This ends up bringing more quality to negotiations. Furthermore, the team seeks alternative solutions to legal impasses that arise when discussing contracts and due diligence in order to ensure that transactions take place safely.’

‘Guilherme Monteiro did a spectacular job advising us on our venture capital investments this year. In addition to in-depth technical knowledge, he moves well within the industry, getting to know other firms and funds, facilitating negotiations in various cases. Professional, dedicated and always available, his role was decisive in negotiations and closing.’

‘Veirano provides a fast, quality and objective service. In particular, objectivity is very welcome in the VC market.’
‘Guilherme Ohanian Monteiro is an example of a true professional. Always accessible, he clarifies all points of the contract, breaking down the red flags and positive points. In conversations with other lawyers, he is firm, defends our interests and after meetings he always shows the positive and negative points. Pamela Gerenutti de Campos Pinheiro is an incredible professional. She clarifies any points of doubt and every time we needed to have a conversation with the other party's lawyers, she seemed to have unique knowledge, as well as excellent resourcefulness.'
