The 2023 merger between Madrona Advogados and Fialho Salles has established Madrona Advogados as a powerhouse in Minas Gerais. The dispute resolution practice offers advice and representation in an array of litigation and arbitration mandates. Its broad expertise earned the practice a far-reaching client base, predominantly consisting of companies from the construction, sanitation, education, technology, and steel industries. Érico Andrade, who is noted for his experience in public law and infrastructure-related disputes, jointly oversees the group with Leonardo Birchal, 'an extremely prepared lawyer' who advises on litigation and arbitration in the energy, infrastructure, mining and construction sectors, and Leonardo Canabrava, who leads the arbitration team. Another active member of the group is associate Breno Vaz, who is particularly skilled at defending manufacturing companies in high-stakes litigation.
