Compliance and Anti-Corruption Legislation

Our firm advises on the development and review of compliance programs aimed at preventing ethical and legal risks, with particular attention to those that may lead to the liability of companies and their representatives. Our services include the creation and enhancement of codes of conduct, internal policies and procedures, whistleblowing channels, and mechanisms for training, awareness, and monitoring.

These programs are tailored to each client, taking into account the specifics of the sector, the company’s profile, and the particular risks associated with its business activities, always with a focus on fostering a culture of integrity and preventing unlawful conduct.

The enactment of Law No. 12.846/2013 (the Brazilian Anti-Corruption Law) has reinforced the role of compliance programs as essential tools for risk mitigation and as relevant factors in the assessment of potential corporate liability, including in the context of leniency agreements.
