Brazilian Latin Lawyer 250 firm\u00a0Mattos Engelberg Advogados has hired two lawyers as partners, strengthening its disputes practice.<\/p>\n

Jo\u00e3o Carlos Areosa and Felipe Moraes joined the firm on 8 January and take the firm\u2019s partner count to 26.<\/p>\n

Areosa joins from\u00a0Tauil & Chequer Advogados in association with Mayer Brown\u00a0and focuses on domestic and international arbitrations and complex litigation. He has experience working for several big Brazilian firms, including\u00a0BMA – Barbosa, M\u00fcssnich, Arag\u00e3o\u00a0and\u00a0Machado Meyer Advogados.<\/p>\n

Fellow new partner Moraes previously worked at S\u00e3o Paulo\u2019s chamber of mediation and business arbitration. He has experience in matters related to construction, infrastructure, energy, public private partnerships and concession contracts, but also corporate disputes.<\/p>\n

Arbitration is still a new practice to Mattos Engelberg. The firm\u00a0launched\u00a0the practice last year by incorporating Favacho Advogados, an arbitration boutique focusing on agribusiness. Mattos Engelberg\u2019s managing partner Fernando Engelberg says Areosa and Moraes are important additions to the firm, especially as it plans to expand the practice beyond the agribusiness sector.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson from Tauil & Chequer says Areosa left the firm on good terms.<\/p>\n

Mattos Engelberg opened in 2016 and has grown considerably in the past year. In July, it signed an international cooperation agreement with UK firm Penningtons Manches Cooper LLP. The agreement is not exclusive but encourages referral work in the jurisdictions where the firms have offices. It gives Mattos Engelberg access to offices in several European countries, including France, Spain and the UK.<\/p>\n

The firm has doubled in size since launching and several new partners joined in 2019. Two associates\u00a0came on board\u00a0as partners from Madrona Advogados and\u00a0Veirano Advogados\u00a0in March. The\u00a0merger\u00a0with Favacho brought one new partner, while the firm\u00a0made\u00a0a lateral hire from Motta Fernandes Advogados to bolster its competition practice.<\/p>\n

Shortly before the end of 2019, one trade partner\u00a0departed\u00a0to set up a new boutique.<\/p>\n
