Felsberg Advogados is a full-service law firm with experience in sophisticated and complex business transactions. In addition to our market leading restructuring and insolvency practice, we advise both national and international clients in the principal areas of corporate and M&A, dispute resolution, tax, banking and finance, and labor and employment.

Founded in 1970, we are considered one of the most prominent and innovative Brazilian law firms. Our partners developed the Bankruptcy/Restructuring & Insolvency, Project Finance, Aviation Finance and Venture Capital practices in Brazil.

In addition to continually improving the firm’s core practices, we have expanded our capabilities to meet new demands of the market, particularly in compliance, white-collar crime, data protection and technology, intellectual property, gaming law, and environment and sustainability.

PRO BONO: We are committed to encouraging social, cultural and educational projects. Among those we support are Vaga Lume (creating and maintaining libraries in the Amazon), Americas Amigas (fighting breast cancer among lower-income women in Brazil), APAQ (treatment of burns victims), and Fashion Revolution (global movement for transparency in the fashion industry’s supply chain). Over the last two years, our legal professionals provided more than 500 pro bono hours.

INCLUSION & DIVERSITY: We focus on selecting and rewarding the best minds, regardless of gender, color, social class, sexual or religious orientation. Respect for diversity is reflected in our values. Among our partners, 50% are women, and within our office as a whole, 57% are women.

Transformation is our business.
