MJ Alves Burle e Viana Advogados introduces the concept of ‘Legal Advocacy’, offering highly specialised legal services with a strong commitment to conflict prevention and resolution.
At MJAB, ‘Legal Advocacy’ is defined as a set of strategic legal actions aimed at addressing complex issues, grounded in a broad, systemic understanding of the legal, political, economic and regulatory landscape, and supported by rigorous technical analysis and solid legal foundations—particularly in the field of public law.
From this perspective, the firm adopts a proactive approach, working alongside stakeholders in a range of decision-making processes to prevent and resolve disputes efficiently, ensuring legal certainty and sustainable long-term outcomes. To this end, the firm relies on a highly specialised, multidisciplinary team.
“Our focus is on developing technical and effective legal solutions, always taking into account the broader context of each case. We promote legal practice with real impact. That is the true purpose of legal defence,” said Fernanda Burle, founding partner of MJAB Advogados.
Unified team
As it approaches its tenth anniversary, MJAB has decided to integrate the work of its entire team under a unified model. This approach—unusual among Brazilian law firms—is designed to ensure that each matter is handled from a comprehensive and multidisciplinary perspective.
In addition to expanding the range of available solutions, the unified structure encourages continuous knowledge-sharing among professionals and enhances efficiency and predictability in decision-making.
For clients, this translates into more cohesive legal advice, capable of coordinating different practice areas around a common objective, with solutions that reflect the full complexity and impact of each case.
“Resolving a complex matter requires not only technical and procedural expertise across different areas of law, but also a broad understanding of how institutions operate,” said Jenise Carvalho, managing partner of MJAB.
