Carneiros Advogados, headquartered in Brasília, has announced the opening of an office in Cuiabá, in the state of Mato Grosso. The move forms part of the firm’s growth strategy, aimed at expanding its direct operations and strengthening its regional presence.
The firm’s entry into Mato Grosso brings it closer to the agribusiness value chain, a sector that accounted for nearly 30% of Brazil’s GDP in 2025, and underscores its commitment to providing tailored, high-quality legal services to clients in the region.
“Cuiabá’s strong economic growth, driven primarily by agribusiness, has generated increasing demand for specialised legal services. This context, combined with the need to be closer to our local clients, was decisive in our decision,” said Rafael Carneiro, partner at Carneiros Advogados.
In addition to its headquarters in Brasília and the new office in Cuiabá, the firm has maintained a presence in São Paulo since 2019.
The firm currently comprises a team of 30 lawyers, including 12 partners, operating across 10 practice areas. With 19 years of experience, Carneiros Advogados has been recognised by leading legal directories in Brazil and internationally. Its practice areas include administrative, competition and regulatory, constitutional, electoral, corporate and civil law, as well as administrative sanctions, criminal, labour and tax law.
