Ms Giedre Brajato > Veirano Advogados > Sao Paulo, Brazil > Lawyer Profile

Boasting an extensive geographical footprint in Brazil, Veirano Advogados attracts instructions from clients operating in a variety of industries (including energy, technology, telecoms, mining, life sciences and agribusiness), who turn to the team for its ‘excellent support in corporate matters and M&A deals’. With an impressive track record in sophisticated M&A involving publicly-held companies, the group is also well versed in private equity and venture capital investments, asset deals and consolidations. Demonstrating extensive experience in all types of M&A transactions, including buy and sell-side mandates, Augusto Cesar Barbosa De Souza steers the São Paulo-based team in domestic and cross-border share and asset acquisitions and divestments. In the same office, Lior Pinsky acts for funds, companies and state-owned enterprises in corporate and financing deals. Daniel Augusto Malatesta is a name to note for emerging growth companies and investors, while Vanessa Felício is a popular choice for clients from the life sciences, consumer products, IT, and oil and gas sectors. Other noteworthy practitioners in São Paulo include Vitor Rozenthal, who focuses on public M&A and private equity, and Diego Yago Rodrigues. Splitting her time between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, managing partner Paula Surerus specialises in matters involving regulated sectors. Also located in Rio, Robson Barreto and Maria Cecilia Vieira are singled out for their deep expertise in the telecoms sector, while Fernando Verzoni heads up the corporate and M&A group in Porto Alegre, where Diego Lerner is also based. The group was strengthened by the arrival of Mauricio Negri Paschoal, Clarissa Yokomizo and Giedre Brajato from Souto Correa Advogados in October 2023.
