Presentation: Stüssi-Neves Advogados was founded in March 1988, as the result of a split-off from a firm which was created in November 1977. In the year 2007, therefore, it will be commemorating 30 years of legal tradition in Brazil. Stüssi-Neves Advogados renders legal assistance and consulting services, including administrative and judicial litigation, to corporate entities and individuals, whether Brazilian or foreign.
