Martinelli Advocacia Empresarial S/C

The law firm Martinelli Advocacia Empresarial was founded in 1997 and is headquartered in Joinville, Brazil. The company is based in the industrial centre of the State of Santa Catarina, and has seven additional regional offices, located in São Paulo, Porto Alegre, Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Maringá and Brasilia. The firm’s activities are based around its highly qualified team of lawyers, who have in-depth knowledge of many specialist areas and focus on achieving results to match clients’ needs, and to exceed their expectations.

The companyës president, João Joaquim Martinelli, sums up the company’s approach to client relationships: "One of the firm’s most critical success factors is our ability to captivate and enchant our clients, and this means doing just that little bit more than the client expects. As a company, this requires us to constantly update our technical knowledge, training, vigilance, and above all to invest in excellent staff who are committed to our ethos." Martinelli Advocacia Empresarial invests heavily in training and specialisation, and encourages lawyers to follow postgraduate courses of study. The result is a highly trained and motivated staff, experienced both in working for well-known legal firms and the legal departments of major corporations.

Martinelli Advocacia Empresarial acknowledges that the excellence of its staff is its key resource but also believes clients are attracted by the company’s ethos and working principles. "We never allow questions of finance to get in the way of professional ethics," says Juliana Cristina Martinelli Raimundi, "and that is crucial to our clients. By definition, the client-firm relationship needs to be one of absolute trust, and we do that by ensuring transparency in our key communications. We look after a client from the beginning to the end of a case, ensuring that they are guided through the legal processes along the way. Our internal structures are also designed to provide multidisciplinary support for more complex cases."

The firm offers services across a number of key areas of law, including international law, IT, labour and social security, corporate and criminal law. It also specialises in tax law and offers tax planning services, as well as proposing mechanisms for legal tax savings, and legal consultancy.
