Mr Emilio Gallucci > Stocche Forbes Advogados > Sao Paulo, Brazil > Lawyer Profile

Rated for the ‘depth and capability of the team at all levels, from partners to associates’, Stocche Forbes Advogados acts on behalf of acquirers, sellers and investors, and excels in big-ticket transactions. The team is skilled in both domestic and international matters, but particularly stands out for its experience in private equity deals, public M&A, and transactions involving regulated sectors (with a special emphasis on energy). André Mestriner Stocche – the go-to partner for several major private equity firms and their portfolio companies – frequently acts for shareholders and managers in proceedings before the Brazilian Securities Exchange Commission (CVM). He jointly leads the practice with Flavio Meyer, who brings together expertise in M&A, equity and debt securities offerings, and Fabiano Milani, who works on buy and sell-side transactions involving Latin American jurisdictions. Igor Finzi is retained by private and publicly-held companies, funds and financial institutions; Luciana Stracieri focuses on private equity and real estate-related deals; and Alessandra Zequi is particularly noted for her track record in M&A involving listed companies. Rafael Andrade, Bruno Bercito, Emilio Gallucci and Teo Silva Galvão (the latter being especially active in the energy, oil and gas, real estate, telecoms and infrastructure sectors), are also part of the core corporate and M&A team. Based in Rio de Janeiro, Pietro Bianchi specialises in matters concerning regulated assets, including mining, while Matheus Campos is the M&A practitioner to note in Belo Horizonte.
