Cescon Barrieu announced the arrival of Camila Mortella as a new partner in the Real Estate area. This appointment strengthens the firm’s presence in this segment and is part of its ongoing expansion of its partnership structure throughout 2026. Since January, the firm has announced 21 new partners.
With over ten years of experience in the legal field, Camila has developed her career in firms and companies, with a practice focused on real estate, forestry investments, corporate law, and M&A. She holds a law degree from Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie and has specializations in Business Law from FGV and in ESG, Stakeholder Management, and Business Ethics from FIA Business School, in addition to executive training in Agribusiness Law from Insper.
Its entry comes at a time of expansion in the real estate investment fund (REIT) market, highlighting the growing importance of institutional capital in the real estate sector. REIT offerings totaled R$39.5 billion in the first half of 2026, representing a 103.9% increase compared to the same period of the previous year.
In this context, Camila will contribute to strengthening the firm’s advisory services in real estate transactions, especially those involving different asset classes and requiring an integrated approach between the legal and business areas. She joins the team currently comprised of partners Marcos Prado and Ivana Bomfim.
“Camila’s arrival strengthens our presence in real estate and aligns with a market that increasingly demands an integrated approach to transactions. We aim to expand our capacity to advise clients on strategic transactions, connecting legal expertise with the various aspects involved in each deal. This move is part of Cescon Barrieu’s growth strategy, focused on strengthening our practices and expanding the experience we offer our clients,” stated Alexandre Barreto , managing partner of Cescon Barrieu.
In 2026, the firm also strengthened its teams in the areas of Tax, Corporate and M&A, Banking and Finance, Technology, and Insurance. With the addition of Camila, Cescon Barrieu now has 86 partners.
