Structuring and protecting assets held in two countries: property, companies and succession. We look at what exists in Brazil, align it with what exists in the United States and put the plan in writing before anything is executed.
If your case fits one of these scenarios, our team runs the whole procedure in Brazil with no need for you to travel.
Assets in two countries with no structure means double the risk: exposure to claims, a succession that opens twice under different rules, and a tax bill that could have been anticipated. Structuring afterwards, with a dispute already running, is far more expensive than planning before.
Service in your own time zone in the United States (in Portuguese, English or Spanish) and execution in person at registries and courts in any Brazilian state.
We review your documents and build the legal strategy that best fits your case.
We arrange the sworn translation and the Hague Apostille with no hassle.
Our team files and follows the case in person at registries and courts.

We map assets, heirs and tax residence in both countries before proposing anything.
The company that will hold the assets is created, drafted for your own case.
The properties move into the holding and the change is recorded on each title.

No — and that distinction matters. What we do is lawful structuring, with declared assets and traceable arrangements. Concealment is a different matter and not something we work on.
No. It is one instrument among several, and it only makes sense in some cases. The diagnosis says whether it applies to yours.
It can. That is exactly why the plan is aligned with what already exists there, and why we recommend working alongside your American accountant.
You can. Personal ownership is not unlawful, it is simply more exposed. The review shows the exposure so the decision is an informed one.
The diagnosis is quick; execution depends on the instruments chosen. Scope and estimated timeline go in writing in the proposal, before any payment.
It takes two minutes to fill in. A Brazilian lawyer reviews your case and replies in writing with what can be done, how long it takes and what it costs.
