The problems the firm works on.
Six areas built around the oil, LPG and fuels sector — each grounded in its own evidentiary base and economic reading, before any strategy is set.
Practice Areas
ANP Regulation
Authorizations, administrative proceedings, enforcement, sanctions, regulatory inquiries and matters concerning the interpretation and application of the rules of Brazil's National Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels Agency (ANP).
Discuss this →Distribution & Resale
Contracts, relationships between economic agents, supply, commercial structures, operational reorganizations and disputes involving fuel and LPG distributors and resellers.
Discuss this →Strategic Litigation
Judicial and administrative representation in regulatory, contractual and economic disputes relevant to agents in the energy and fuels sector.
Discuss this →Competition & Market Structure
Law and economics analysis applied to regulation, contracts, incentives, business relationships, market structure and competition matters.
Discuss this →Contracts & Business Strategy
Structuring, review, interpretation and negotiation of contractual relationships in regulated markets, weighing their legal, economic and operational dimensions together.
Discuss this →Strategic Consulting
Diagnosis, structuring and decision-support in regulated environments, integrating law, economics, data and operational reality.
Discuss this →How the Work Is Built
Technical Legal Drafting
Filings, submissions, opinions and briefs built for high-complexity administrative and judicial proceedings.
Law & Economics Analysis
Every relevant thesis is tested against market structure, incentives, costs, economic effects and regulatory consequences.
Evidentiary Base
Official data, administrative proceedings, documents, case law, economic information and concrete evidence precede any rhetorical construction.
Strategy
The legal recommendation weighs not only what is legally possible, but its effects on operations, the business and the regulatory environment.
How a Legal Thesis Is Built
Autonomous Pillars
Each ground must be capable of sustaining the conclusion on its own, avoiding theses dependent on a single chain of argument.
Evidence Before Rhetoric
Proceedings, official data, documents, economic evidence and precedent must come before the construction of the argument.
Unfavorable Precedent Addressed
Contrary case law and arguments are confronted explicitly, distinguished by fact, law or economics — never ignored.
