Mattos Filho fields a ‘multidisciplinary and integrated team’ of lawyers with ‘enormous experience‘ in the real estate sector. Praised for its ‘pro-business attitude’, the firm is regularly involved in some of the most novel transactions and development projects to hit the country’s commercial real estate market. This includes providing support to major investment funds, corporate investors, sovereign funds and developers in high-end urban and rural real estate deals. Portfolio transactions with a heavy corporate element also feature prominently on the workload. Standing out for her in-depth knowledge of real estate financing transactions, Rossana Fernandes Duarte is well versed in the gamut of real estate matters, including leasing agreements, land use, real estate investment funds and build-to-suit transactions. In addition to being a key adviser to investment funds, developers and institutional investors, Janaína Vargas is also the name to note for the forestry and agribusiness segments.
