Lawyer Rankings

Brazil > Environment

Boutique firm Milaré Advogados houses an ‘extremely specialised‘ and ‘highly prepared‘ team comprised of ‘professionals of different levels of seniority‘ with market-leading credentials in environmental law. Contentious matters, including judicial, administrative and criminal proceedings, are a strong suit for the group, which is also well placed to advise on an array of environmental consulting mandates, ranging from the licensing of infrastructure projects and land acquisitions to compliance and regulatory issues. A reference in the Brazilian market, Édis Milaré oversees the practice, which counts on the technical expertise of engineers, chemists and biologists to support household names operating in environmentally sensitive industries, including agribusiness, forestry and paper, infrastructure, real estate, energy, chemicals, mining and construction. Thiago Sales Pereira and Maria Clara Rodrigues Alves Gomes are the main points of contact for energy, mining and banking clients, while Rubens Silveira Neto is regularly retained by construction, engineering, gas and retail companies in non-contentious and litigious matters. Other noteworthy individuals include Lucas Milaré and Lupércio Alves Cruz de Carvalho, the latter of whom has a wealth of experience in environmental licensing and litigation. Roberta Jardim and Mayara Alves Bezerra are no longer at the firm.
