Rocco, in turn, is a tax attorney with extensive expertise and a practice focused on the analysis, planning, and management of tax matters, always strategically aligned with clients’ needs and objectives. He holds a law degree from Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie and a postgraduate degree in Tax Law from the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo (PUC-SP), an academic background that reinforces his dedication to strengthening the firm’s tax practice.
