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.

Why Environmental and Climate Law Matters in This Region

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.

Our Environmental Legal Services Include:
  • ⦁ Environmental licensing (federal, state, and municipal levels)
  • ⦁ Legal defense in administrative environmental proceedings
  • ⦁ Climate change adaptation legal strategies
  • ⦁ Legal due diligence for environmental liabilities in real estate and agribusiness
  • ⦁ Structuring of carbon credit projects under Brazilian and international frameworks

  • Legal Advice on Climate Change and International Standards

    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.

    Focus on Agribusiness and Sustainable Land Use

    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.

    Legal Support for Carbon Credit Projects and Sustainable Finance

    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.

    Handling Environmental Disputes and Administrative Fines

    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.

    Advisory for Municipal Environmental Management and Urban Planning

    We support municipalities and public managers in developing local environmental governance, zoning laws, and infrastructure projects aligned with climate resilience goals.

    Sustainable Investments and Corporate Environmental Responsibility

    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.

    Renewable Energy Legal Solutions in Central Brazil

    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.

    Deforestation, Biodiversity, and Legal Strategies for Preservation

    As deforestation risks legal consequences, we help landowners structure conservation commitments and navigate the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) and Legal Reserve system.
