Our law firm offers specialized legal services in environmental and climate law throughout the central-western region of Brazil, with a focus on the states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul. These territories are internationally recognized for their vital role in biodiversity preservation, sustainable agriculture, and renewable energy development. Our mission is to provide legal support to businesses, landowners, investors, and public entities as they navigate complex environmental regulations, ensuring alignment with Brazil’s evolving climate policies and international commitments.
Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul are strategic regions facing significant environmental pressures. Deforestation, agribusiness expansion, land-use conflicts, and climate vulnerabilities necessitate robust legal frameworks and strategic compliance. Our team ensures that you meet all legal requirements, avoid penalties, and engage in sustainable development with confidence.
We guide clients on legal compliance with climate legislation and global frameworks such as the Paris Agreement and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) criteria. Whether you are launching a reforestation project, transitioning to renewable energy, or facing liability for environmental harm, our lawyers provide tailored legal strategies.
In both states, agribusiness is a dominant force, and environmental challenges are part of daily operations. We work with farmers, cooperatives, agro-exporters, and environmental agencies to ensure full legal compliance with Brazil’s Forest Code, sustainable certification requirements, and land regulation mandates.
Carbon markets are becoming increasingly crucial for companies seeking to mitigate their emissions. We assist in the validation, registration, and monitoring of carbon credit projects, helping our clients understand the legal, tax, and compliance framework necessary to operate in both the voluntary and regulated carbon markets.
Our team represents clients in lawsuits and administrative hearings involving IBAMA, state environmental agencies (SEMA), and the Public Prosecutor's Office. We negotiate settlements, seek injunctions when needed, and defend against environmental infractions or embargoes.
We support municipalities and public managers in developing local environmental governance, zoning laws, and infrastructure projects aligned with climate resilience goals.
Companies must integrate environmental responsibility into their operations to ensure sustainability. We provide legal guidance for ESG reports, sustainability programs, and supply chain compliance, offering a competitive edge in global markets.
The potential for solar, biomass, and wind energy in Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul is vast. We assist with permitting, grid connection regulations, land-use licensing, and investor protection in renewable energy projects.
As deforestation risks legal consequences, we help landowners structure conservation commitments and navigate the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) and Legal Reserve system.
Our legal practice combines in-depth local knowledge with a global vision. With a presence across Brazil and a team of fluent English-speaking legal professionals, we serve both Brazilian clients and international stakeholders investing or operating in these states.
Ensure your project is aligned with Brazilian environmental law and global sustainability standards. Contact our law firm for tailored legal support in Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul.
