GONÇALVES MONTEIRO ADVOCACIA EMPRESARIAL

Strategic legal counsel to companies, shareholders and boards. Forty years in key audit, finance, operations and executive leadership roles at multinational groups, in Brazil and abroad, make it possible to see each issue as the board and senior management see it — and to translate the law into actionable decisions, backed by the heritage of a family of jurists.
