Noted for its ‘quality, results, efficiency, and commitment to the client’, the labour and employment department at Bichara Advogados has experience handling both contentious and non-contentious matters, ranging from work-related accidents to internal audits and investigations. Most notably, the group is involved in novel mandates related to equal pay and remuneration between men and women, which has remained a central focus for many Brazilian firms since the 2023 equity pay law. The practice’s capabilities have amassed clients from a range of sectors, including infrastructure, healthcare, and food and beverage, and its roster continues to expand. Christiana Fontenelle, who is skilled in administrative and judicial proceedings, co-heads the team alongside João Pedro Eyler Povoa, noted for his experience in collective labour actions, and litigation specialist Jorge Gonzaga Matsumoto.

Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- ‘What makes the firm different is the willingness they have to understand the client's business, delve into the details, and only then deliver alternatives that go beyond the legal aspect and allow us to adapt the legal part to the needs of the business.’
- ‘Jorge Matsumoto, Christiana Fontenelle, and Paolo Vieira Cabral stand out from their competitors because they know how to listen, because they do not want to impose a specific legal solution, and because they have extensive technical knowledge.’
