Common Challenges
Corporate Issues That May Be Affecting Your Business
Risks that affect companies, partners, startups, and corporate groups. All of them can be prevented or resolved with specialized legal guidance in Corporate Law and Corporate Governance.
Company Without a Shareholders’ Agreement
The lack of clear rules on decision-making, profit distribution, responsibilities, and partner exit creates legal uncertainty and increases the risk of internal conflicts.
Poorly Defined or Inadequate Corporate Structure
Incorrect choices of corporate structure (LLC, corporation, holding, etc.) can increase costs, tax risks, and hinder growth, investment attraction, or succession planning.
Conflicts Between Partners and Lack of Governance
Disagreements over management, capital contributions, roles, expectations, or breach of duties can compromise business continuity and lead to complex disputes.
Outdated Articles of Association or Shareholders’ Agreements
Documents that do not reflect the company’s evolution, changes in ownership, or new legal requirements create legal uncertainty and may be challenged in court.
Partner Entry or Exit Without Legal Review
Poorly structured transactions, such as equity transfers, voluntary withdrawal, partner exclusion, or investor entry, can result in financial losses, liability risks, and legal disputes.
Conflictive or Unstructured Company Dissolution
Improper dissolution or lack of legal guidance may lead to personal liability, hidden liabilities, legal restrictions, and long-term disputes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Corporate Law attorney do?
A corporate lawyer advises companies, partners, and investors on all matters involving the legal structure of a business, including company formation, drafting and reviewing articles of association, shareholders’ agreements, reorganizations, corporate governance, investor entry and exit, resolution of corporate disputes, and asset protection.
They ensure legal security in strategic decisions and reduce risks that could lead to future litigation.
When is it necessary to create a Shareholders’ Agreement?
Whenever there is more than one partner in the company.
The agreement establishes rules regarding management, rights and obligations, profit distribution, transfer of equity interests, succession, partner exit, dispute resolution, and protection against actions that may harm the business.
It is one of the most important instruments to prevent corporate disputes.
What is the difference between Articles of Association and a Shareholders’ Agreement?
The Articles of Association are public and mandatory, they formalize the company’s incorporation and must be registered.
The Shareholders’ Agreement is private and strategic, it details internal rules that do not need to be included in the Articles, such as governance, veto rights, non-compete clauses, exit provisions, and economic rights.
Both complement each other to ensure legal security for the business.
How does the entry or exit of a partner work?
Equity changes require legal analysis of the transaction, valuation of ownership interests, review of liquidity clauses, updates to the articles of association, and potential adjustments to liabilities.
Without proper legal guidance, common mistakes can lead to financial liabilities, tax risks, and future disputes.
Do you assist with holding structures?
Yes. We design family, asset, or corporate holding structures focused on asset protection, organized succession, tax efficiency, and governance.
The structure is always tailored to the client’s objectives and specific circumstances.
Do startups need corporate legal advisory from the beginning?
Yes. Startups grow quickly and often deal with equity participation, investment agreements, vesting, stock options, confidentiality agreements, and intellectual property.
Mistakes at the early stage can deter investors or compromise future funding rounds.
Do you assist foreign companies and investors?
Yes. Our firm provides support for the establishment of foreign companies in Brazil, regulatory compliance, drafting of corporate documents, and guidance in international operations, as well as assistance in interpreting applicable foreign laws.
Do you handle shareholder disputes?
Yes. We assist with conflict mediation, renegotiation of corporate instruments, rebalancing of ownership interests, partial or full company dissolution, and arbitration proceedings.
Our focus is on preserving the company’s economic value and avoiding prolonged disputes.
When is it recommended to create a family holding?
Whenever there is significant asset value, multiple heirs, a need for succession planning, protection against business risks, or a search for tax efficiency.
A holding structure helps prevent inheritance disputes, reduce costs, and ensure continuity.
