As one of the most dynamic and innovative sectors, aviation is a complex business that demands the right legal advice from the right professionals. Our highly qualified team understands the industry and its technical side, assisting clients in all their legal and commercial needs, always with a focus on the strategy behind each transaction.
We are continually seeking new perspectives and building long-standing relationships with clients and market players, expanding our significant expertise in the industry even further. The members of our team are exclusively dedicated to aviation, providing efficient, pro-active and specialized services with excellence.
The team assists Brazilian and international clients in a broad range of cross-border and domestic transactions, especially in sophisticated aircraft, offshore helicopters and engine financing. We usually advise export credit agencies (ECAs), multinational banks, arrangers, lenders, financiers and lessors. Also, we have represented lessors, investors, banks and important creditors in relevant airline debt restructuring and bankruptcy processes, both in and out of court and in liquidation procedures.
On a different side, we advise clients on M&A transactions and, more specifically, Brazilian operators on forming complex corporate structures, as well as foreign carriers in setting up their operations in the country.
