From the Managing Partner

2024 was marked by various challenges stemming from the macroeconomic scenario, yet for a number of sectors in Brazil, there were still key areas for developing business opportunities.

In this context, our firm began a new chapter in its rich history. I had the privilege of taking on the role of managing partner, previously held by founding partner Roberto Quiroga. Leading the firm at this moment in time is a source of great personal pride, as it symbolizes the robust path we have forged so far as an institution.

Our focus on efficiency and outstanding service was fundamental to our performance in 2024, as it has been ever since the firm was founded. We were even more attentive to industry developments in both Brazil and abroad, allowing us to offer Brazilian and international clients innovative, personalized solutions across more than 45 areas of law.

The result was significant double-digit growth in our gross revenue and other important indicators, such as the number of open cases and billed hours. This was only possible due to the extensive range of legal services we offer, including litigation, transactional, and regulatory work, as well as the strong collaborative culture among the firm’s partners and practice areas.

Moreover, I believe it essential to highlight our people, as they are crucial to the firm and one of the main reasons it stands out. Our professionals’ collective efforts have ensured Mattos Filho’s position yet again as a point of reference among full-service firms in Latin America.

In this regard, I invite you to follow everything we have prepared for the second edition of Pulso, our integrated report. Grounded in our pioneering efforts to promote transparency and social accountability among law firms, the report contains information on our results for 2024, our initiatives and commitments, as well as exclusive analysis of prominent topics in 2024 that should remain in the spotlight as we move into 2025.

Our ongoing pursuit of efficiency, innovation, and excellence drives us to transform our clients’ legal challenges into business opportunities.
