The creation of our French Desk reflects our commitment to further consolidating our position as strategic partners in international ventures. "This milestone is highlighted by the arrival of Thais Heck and the return of Rana Bakri, based in Paris. Both will contribute significantly to strengthening our international presence, thanks to their French language skills and law studies in France," commented Neil Montgomery, the firm's founding partner.
Thais Heck graduated from the University of São Paulo (USP) Law School. She lived in Paris, where she studied international law at the Paris II Faculty – Assas and worked at a renowned Brazilian law firm with a presence in the French capital. Rana Bakri graduated from PUC-SP and has experience in corporate law, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and international law. She is based in Paris.
We appreciate our clients' continued trust and are confident that this expansion will strengthen our ability to meet today's diverse legal needs.
