PVG - Perlman Vidigal Godoy Advogados has a new partner in litigation and arbitration: Ricardo Zamariola Junior.
Holding a bachelor's degree in Law from the University of Sao Paulo, Ricardo had, for more than 12 years, been a partner at a prestigious boutique in Sao Paulo, where he concentrated his practice in civil litigation in corporate, contractual and family laws.
Specifically in the family law domain, Ricardo was noted for his work in one of the most high-profile family disputes in Brazil - the so called "Goldman Matter" -, where the issue of international child abduction was for the first time deeply discussed in the country.
As a result of his success in the case, Ricardo was included in the article "40 faces of new Brazil", published by Brazilian magazine Epoca, as one of the most professionally accomplished 40 Brazilians under 40 years of age. Ricardo was also nominated by local magazine Veja Sao Paulo as one of the most skillful family attorneys of Sao Paulo, and had his personal profile published by the reputable magazine Revista Piaui.
Ricardo joins PVG as partner and brings along his same team of the past six years. "The arrival of an outstanding attorney such as Ricardo, accompanied by an experienced legal team, adds extraordinary value to the firm, and highlights our commitment to providing excellent services to our clients", says partner Marcelo Perlman, in charge of PVG's corporate and acquisitions practices. Luciano Godoy, a litigation and arbitration partner with whom Ricardo joins forces, also emphasizes the importance of his addition to the team: "Ricardo's move into PVG is inserted into a context of strong growth of the firm. while always keeping true to our goal of providing highest quality legal services. Emboldened by a larger and competent group of professionals, we are in an ideal position to dedicate special attention to each one of the matters under our care".
