Demarest announces new dispute resolution partner
Demarest Advogados announced that Tatiana Ferri is the newest partner hired by the office. She will bolster Demarest’s dispute resolution practice area (arbitration and civil litigation).
The new partner brings more than 20 years of experience in the legal market to the firm and concentrates her practice on the infrastructure and construction sector at a time when Brazil is not only discussing investments, but the execution of complex projects. As these projects can lead to divergences and disputes in numerous phases, this can create opportunities within the scope of arbitration.
Tatiana Ferri holds a master’s degree in Law from Queen Mary University of London, England, a postgraduate degree in Brazilian Administrative Law from Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV-SP), a postgraduate degree in Brazilian Civil Procedural Law from Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP), and a bachelor’s degree in Law from Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
She is an internationally experienced lawyer, having spent ten years at White & Case in London, where she worked on some of the largest international arbitrations, involving several jurisdictions and professionals. Tatiana Ferri is also certified to practice law as a solicitor in England.
Tatiana has advised some of the largest infrastructure companies in Brazil in the segments of oil and gas, energy, mining, insurance, and rail, among others. This experience has provided her with extensive technical knowledge, combining both a business and legal vision.
With Tatiana Ferri’s hiring, Demarest now has 87 partners, of which 17 work in the Dispute Resolution practice area, in a wide range of industries.
