- ‘Among the professionals who stand out most in the Lobo de Rizzo International Arbitration team, Helena Abdo deserves a special mention. Her performance combines technical precision, strategic clarity and impressive communication skills – characteristics that place her among the most promising and respected names of the new generation of lawyers in the sector. What really sets Helena apart from her competitors is her ability to analyze complex disputes in depth and, at the same time, maintain an accessible, collaborative and highly reliable attitude towards clients and the teams involved. Her international training and practical experience give her a unique perspective, especially in arbitrations involving multiple jurisdictions or with a strong regulatory component. In addition to Helena, the team has other excellent professionals, but it is her profile – at once technical, human and innovative – that draws the most attention and makes her a clear recommendation both within and outside the Brazilian market.'
