Firm Overview:
Finocchio & Ustra Sociedade de Advogados started with the dream to fill a gap in the State of São Paulo's countryside’s market and build a full-service firm that could compete with the most admired offices in Brazil.

Focused on developing effective and reliable legal solutions, highly qualified professionals, and working closely with clients, the firm gained market share and currently has in its client portfolio national and international companies of all sizes, and from all business segments.

Finocchio & Ustra has made several investments in corporate governance and in its management model; such as its participation in the Partners for Excellence Program (PAEX) of Fundação Dom Cabral, which is one of the best business schools in the world.

With the future and the sustainability of the firm in mind, in 2019 Finocchio & Ustra launched its innovation platform: Future in Us (https://www.futurein.us/en/), as it believes in the rapid and disruptive evolution of law.
