About

With a highly diversified business model primarily based around road, rail and air transport and infrastructure, CCR’s international, multi-billion-dollar operation is one of the most complex that any in-house legal team in Brazil is a part of. The company operates a long-term, public-private business model in a number of subsidiary companies that operate concessions for toll roads and other revenue streams related to infrastructure, and also has holdings in logistics, engineering, traffic control and administrative services. Mirian Gomes, legal coordinator, leads a number of teams at CCR who deal with these myriad responsibilities, which often require innovative new contracts to be developed in response to the unique challenges that the company’s business model brings. Similarly, Roberto Penna Chaves, legal superintendent, brings with him a wealth of experience gained via almost seven years with CCR, prior to which he was a partner with Fialdini, Penna, Tilkian Advogados.
