Dual-Licensed in Brazil & the United States
Expert Brazilian Maritime & International Law Firm
One firm on both sides of the border. We handle maritime disputes, US visas for Brazilians, company formation, and property purchases, without the cost and confusion of coordinating separate lawyers in each country.
International Practice
Cross-border law, handled end to end
International law is our specialty. Because we are admitted in both Brazil and the United States, one team carries a matter across both legal systems instead of handing it between firms.
Immigration
US Immigration & Visas
EB-5 investor visas, L-1 executive transfers, Green Cards, and family petitions for Brazilian clients, including how to structure Brazilian assets to satisfy US requirements.
Corporate
Business & International Trade
Company formation, joint ventures, import and export contracts, and Central Bank registration for US businesses entering Brazil and Brazilian businesses entering the US.
Maritime Law
Maritime & Admiralty
Vessel arrests, cargo claims, and maritime liens in Brazilian ports. We advise shipowners, charterers, and P&I Clubs on how Brazilian admiralty law differs from international practice.
Real Estate
Property & Real Estate
Title searches, due diligence, and purchase contracts so foreign buyers acquire Brazilian property safely, with currency transfers properly registered.
★★★★★
I needed to establish a Sociedade Limitada in Brazil and had no idea where to start. Ajax guided me through the entire process, handled the complex paperwork under power of attorney, and my company was officially registered within a few weeks. His fluency in both languages and his command of both legal systems turned what could have been an ordeal into a smooth, professional experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you handle both US and Brazilian legal matters?
Yes. Our attorneys are dual-licensed, so one firm manages both sides of a cross-border matter: one strategy, one point of contact, and no coordination overhead between separate US and Brazilian lawyers.
Can foreigners buy property in Brazil?
Yes. Foreign buyers can own Brazilian property outright. You will need a CPF tax number, and due diligence on the title deed is essential. We handle title searches, contracts, and Central Bank currency requirements.
Which US visas do you handle for Brazilians?
We advise on EB-5 investor visas, L-1 executive transfers, Green Cards, and family-based petitions, and we help structure Brazilian assets to meet US investment requirements.
What maritime law services do you provide?
We represent shipowners, charterers, and P&I Clubs in Brazilian matters: vessel arrests, cargo claims, maritime liens, and enforceability review of Bills of Lading and Charter Parties.
