About

With 63 continuous years in transmission, RecordTV is Brazil’s oldest and second most popular television network. Recommended for the problem solving abilities and innovative thinking of its lawyers, the legal unit is at the heart of the network’s operations. Composed of distinct litigation and counselling teams, the department possesses strong expertise in regulatory affairs, intellectual property, online media, tax, labour, criminal law and contracts. The litigation team, in particular, has recently demonstrated excellent results, having experienced a significant reduction in liability in civil litigations and successfully coping with an increasing number of labour and employment litigations during a recent, dramatic surge in lawsuits. The team has also impressed with the swiftness of its work on major content acquisition agreements, as well as its work on multi-billion dollar legal procedures focusing on freedom of the press, civil liability, class actions and intellectual property among others. The team is led by legal director Edinomar Galter, a lawyer with over 20 years of experience.
