Political Parties and Elections

We deal with the legal bases that govern the fundamental elements of politics and governance in Brazil. We advise political figures and political parties to fulfill their duties within the law.

Our work includes:

  • Advising on and monitoring party conventions to choose candidates, preliminary and preparatory acts, including eligibility analysis and legal advice.
  • Consultancy, monitoring and representation in all phases of the election, from the registration of candidacy to the defense or challenge, including electoral propaganda and rendering of accounts;
  • Taking legal action in disputes between party boards and members, defending the rights of political party members.
  • Advice for party directories on all aspects of party life, such as conventional processes, meetings, rendering of accounts and disciplinary procedures.
  • Advice for companies and institutions on elections, behavior during the electoral process and actions after the elections.
