Our specialized team offers comprehensive advice on all relevant legal aspects of applying ESG (environmental, social, and governance) criteria.
Corporate Governance
We advise on the design of corporate governance structures for companies, both public and private, incorporating ESG criteria and considering the impact of climate change:
Investment, Mergers, and Acquisitions
We incorporate ESG criteria into transactional processes, from due diligence to corporate decision-making, to protect the board of directors from potential liability claims. We also advise on managing the authorization of foreign investments with an ESG focus.
Sustainable Financing
ESG principles are fundamental in corporate and project financing. We offer advice on implementing these principles in financing structures, complying with applicable requirements. We provide guidance on sustainable finance aspects, including financial services regulations, taxonomy, voluntary codes of practice, sustainable vehicles, and investment funds.
Strategic Litigation
Litigation has become a key tool for environmental protection and combating climate change. Our team advises on:
Environment and Climate Change
We identify applicable environmental requirements to ensure compliance and offer solutions that optimize waste, emissions, discharges, and noise management, improving environmental sustainability and corporate positioning.
Social Responsibility
We advise on human capital, social responsibility, diversity, equity and inclusion, and compensation and incentive programs related to ESG variables.
