Moura Tavares Advogados Recognised in Two Practice Areas in Leaders League Brasil 2027

Oct 16, 2026 – Belo Horizonte, Brasil

Moura Tavares Advogados is proud to announce that we have once again earned recognition in the Leaders League Brasil rankings, securing distinctions in two practice areas in the Transactions & Deals 2027 edition.

The firm has been recognised in:

  • Tax Law – Southeast
  • Corporate/Commercial – Southeast

The latest results continue the firm's record of recognition by Leaders League and highlight its work in two areas of particular importance to businesses operating in Brazil: taxation and corporate and commercial law.

Recognition in a respected international legal ranking

Leaders League is an international research and ranking organisation that evaluates law firms and other professional advisers across jurisdictions and areas of expertise.

Its rankings are developed through a research process that considers firms' recent work, the nature and complexity of matters handled, team expertise and market reputation. Client and peer feedback also contribute to the assessments.

Unlike rankings focused exclusively on individual lawyers, Leaders League evaluates the performance and capabilities of firms and their practice teams.

For Moura Tavares Advogados, inclusion in the 2027 Transactions & Deals rankings represents further external recognition of its work in Brazil's Southeast region, one of the country's principal centres of business and commercial activity.

The recognition also acknowledges the contributions of the firm's lawyers across both practice areas. In Corporate/Commercial Law – Southeast, the team includes partners Alexandre Figueiredo and Leonardo Sandes, alongside Marcelo Belico, Luiza Funghi and Carolina Caldeira.

In Tax Law – Southeast, the recognised team comprises partners Ricardo Moreira and Ismail Salles, together with André Lara, Alex Ribas, Daniela Auad, Murilo Fernandes and Eduardo Kossoski.

Expertise supporting business operations

The two recognised categories reflect complementary areas of legal practice.

Tax Law is central to business planning, regulatory compliance and the management of financial and legal risks. For companies operating in Brazil, effective tax advice is particularly relevant when navigating the country's complex fiscal environment.

Corporate and Commercial Law supports businesses in their day-to-day operations, contractual relationships, corporate governance and commercial decision-making.

Recognition in both categories highlights the relevance of the firm's expertise to companies seeking legal advice across interconnected aspects of their business activities.

Moura Tavares Advogados operates through offices in Belo Horizonte, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Brasília, providing legal services across several important Brazilian business and administrative centres.

A continued commitment to clients and legal excellence

Announcing the recognition, Moura Tavares Advogados emphasised the contribution of its professionals and the trust placed in the firm by its clients.

The firm described the latest distinctions as recognition of its commitment to excellence, efficiency and the delivery of legal solutions aligned with clients' specific needs.

The results also acknowledge the collective work of #TeamMTAdv, whose dedication and expertise underpin the firm's client relationships and professional achievements.

For Legal Netlink Alliance, the recognition provides another opportunity to celebrate the capabilities of its Brazilian membership and the specialist expertise that member firms contribute to the international network.

Congratulations to the entire Moura Tavares Advogados team on its continued recognition in Leaders League Brasil.
