In 1980, we started building our dream, while we were still in our fourth year of Law School at Largo de São Francisco (USP). Driven by a youthful utopia, we believed we would be able to make our own law firm come true, allowing us to fulfill our professional vocation.

Everything would have been more difficult had we not had the support of Professor Dalmo de Abreu Dallari. In addition to teaching us the basis of State law in the classroom, he helped us take the first steps in lawyering, always alerting us to the importance of ethics in the exercise of the profession. The testimony of Prof. Dalmo, expressed in a very touching text, is the celebration of our long-standing firm.

The office turns 40 years old and makes us very proud, giving us a sense of accomplishment. We celebrate four decades of uninterrupted activities and the certainty that we have designed the right path.

A special thanks to our clients, colleagues who have passed by our firm and employees who remain with us. We stay solid and willing to continue treading the path of a serious and ethical professional activity in defense of our clients' rights.
