Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- Marina Freire and Arthur Prudente, both responsible for the project. Committed and extremely competent professionals.
- We received expert advice from the firm in researching and proposing climate regulations within the scope of an innovative state climate planning project. We emphasize the professionalism and availability of the professionals involved, but above all, the demonstrated technical capacity. The project required extensive updating of theoretical frameworks, jurisprudence research, and integrated analyses of various public policies and their legal regulations. The proposal presented by the firm brought innovations in instruments and strategies that will certainly transform the project into a benchmark on the subject in the country.
- The team stands out for taking full ownership of each matter, approaching it as if they were the true owners, and consistently striving to find the best possible solution.
- Highly qualified, multidisciplinary firm with a strong technical team, strategic vision, and deep regulatory expertise, enabling a holistic approach to matters. It stands out for anticipating risks and delivering pragmatic solutions. Marina Freire leads with excellence, combining legal rigor with commercial awareness, consistently exceeding national market standards.
- Marina, a partner in the environmental area, is an excellent professional. She works closely with clients, quickly mobilizing the necessary resources to ensure the best service. She demonstrates a high level of commitment to our issues, anticipates risks, and proposes assertive solutions. She is a reliable partner for all situations, combining speed in service with the technical depth that the demands require.
- Next month marks my one-year anniversary as head of the legal department at Faber-Castell. Until now, I was unfamiliar with the Madrona Advogados law firm, and it has been a pleasant surprise to have such a structured and collaborative partner. The firm provides comprehensive support, operating in virtually all areas of law, always with a high level of technical expertise and personalized service. I would also like to highlight the work of Marina, a partner in the environmental law area, whose exceptional service has been a significant asset to our work.
