THE IDEAL COMBINATION OF EXPERTISE IN STRUCTURING AND RUNNING BUSINESS.

We are a Business Law Boutique, acting independently and yet close to the client, ready to meet the business objectives and create tailored solutions.

Our team consists of lawyers with experience in Brazilian and foreign financial institutions, offering security and efficiency in the legal advice we provide to our clients in Brazil and abroad.

For us, building long-term partnerships is fundamental and, for this reason, we encourage empathy in our daily performance, mutual trust and commitment between the parties.

O Fonseca Marques Advogados (FMA) foi fundado em 2019 por Taciana Fonseca Marques na sua volta ao mercado nacional, depois de uma carreira internacional em que atuou como Senior Counsel / Head do Jurídico no International Finance Corporation – IFC/ Banco Mundial, nas Américas e na África.

Ao longo destes anos, o FMA tem sido reconhecido pela atuação assertiva e sempre muito próxima ao negócio do cliente, com extrema dedicação de um time comprometido e capaz de navegar nos assuntos mais complexos, falando a língua do cliente, mas sem esquecer da linguagem da lei.

Recentemente fomos destaque no Análise Advocacia 500, um relevante guia jurídico, como as mulheres mais admiradas na advocacia brasileira, e premiados como escritório independente mais admirado pelos clientes.
