Relied upon by notable names from the food and beverage, manufacturing, and aviation sectors, among other key industries, the competition and antitrust team at Trench Rossi Watanabe has deep experience advising on merger control proceedings at both the domestic and multijurisdictional levels. Co-leading the practice are the ‘brilliant’ Paulo Casagrande and Francisco Niclós Negrão, both of whom bring a wealth of expertise to the department; Casagrande is adept at handling anti-competitive conduct investigations and merger reviews, while Negrão specialises in investigations related to vertical and horizontal practices and developing and implementing regulatory compliance programmes. The team also benefits from the aptitude of Andrea Cruz, who concentrates on investigations, and Caroline Guyt França, who focuses on compliance.
