Lawyer Rankings

Brazil > Energy and natural resources > Electricity (and renewable energy)

With extensive experience in the generation, transmission, distribution and commercialisation of power, Veirano Advogados advises industry players on project development and finance, contracts, M&A, tax, regulatory issues and litigation. It particularly stands out for its presence in the renewable energy space, where it assists clients in M&A transactions, distributed generation and in the negotiation of supply, construction, operation and maintenance agreements for solar and wind projects. Daniel Engel maintains a broad practice, but is especially active in renewable generation projects. He jointly leads the team with Ana Carolina Barretto, a key contact for financings, and Alberto Büll, who joined as a partner from 2W Energia in November 2022 and brings a wealth of experience in administrative proceedings and power sector auctions. Associate Paola Oliveira has notable expertise in contracts, public and regulatory law, with a particular emphasis on power generation, while Luísa Tortolano Barreto is singled out for her experience in sector-related M&A and regulatory matters. The team was strengthened by the arrival of energy specialists Fabio Di Lallo, Livia Amorim and Juliana Melcop from Souto Correa Advogados in October 2023.

Brazil > Energy and natural resources > Hydrocarbons

At Veirano Advogados, the oil, gas and biofuels team acts for a varied client roster, ranging from refineries and distribution companies to midstream players, E&P clients and service providers. Though prepared to assist in the full array of matters relating to the hydrocarbons sector, the team is particularly adept in transactional and regulatory mandates. Ali El Hage Filho, a ‘partner in the oil and gas area with extensive in-house experience‘, manages a diverse workload where regulatory advice features alongside deals and commercial agreements. Associate Tito Rosa is another name to note for contractual matters, administrative proceedings and regulatory issues. The team was reinforced by the addition of Livia Amorim and Fabio Di Lallo from Souto Correa Advogados in October 2023. Former practice head Rogerio Campos left the firm in July 2023.
