Littler has opened client service in Brazil through Chiode Miniucci

Littler, the world’s largest employment and Labour law practice representing management, is pleased to announce a new correspondent counsel relationship with Chiode Minicucci, a leading Labour and Employment law firm comprised of 18 attorneys in Brazil.

Chiode Minicucci team will partner with all the members of Littler’s global platform, which now includes a presence in 12 markets in Latin America and more than 1,500 attorneys across 24 countries. Littler recently announced an expansion into Spain, a move that further enhanced both the firm’s European and Latin American capabilities – given the strong ties between the two regions.

Chiode Minicucci is led by partners Daniel Domingues Chiode (pictured left) and Marília Nascimento Minicucci (pictured centre) and has professionals in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Sul and Brasília. The firm represents management in both individual and class action litigation before Brazil’s Regional Labor Courts, the Superior Labor Court and the Brazil Supreme Court. Chiode Minicucci also provides counsel on Employment and Labour law matters to companies in a variety of industries, including pharmaceutical, chemical, technology, aviation, insurance, infrastructure, energy and retail.

Chiode Minicucci and its attorneys have been recognized as leaders in Labour and Employment law. The team will work closely with New York-based Littler shareholder Renata Neeser (pictured right), a native of São Paulo. She previously practised in that city, in coordinating support of clients’ needs in Brazil.

Littler’s international operations span four continents – North America, South America, Asia and Europe. In addition to the new support in Brazil, include offices in Austria, Belgium, Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, France, Germany, Guatemala, Honduras, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Poland, Singapore, Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States (including Puerto Rico) and Venezuela. The firm’s global capabilities also include lawyers with exceptional international experience, including practitioners dually licensed in the U.S. and Australia, Brazil, Japan and South Africa, respectively.
