Regional expertise for the sector that drives Mato Grosso do Sul
Mato Grosso do Sul is one of the largest agribusiness hubs in Brazil, and HFD Advocacia sits at the heart of that market. We advise rural producers, agro-industrial companies, meatpacking plants, and cooperatives on every legal matter related to farming and the environment.
Our team has deep knowledge of federal and state environmental legislation, the rules of IBAMA, IMASUL, and other regulatory agencies, as well as the particularities of the commodities market and contractual relationships within Mato Grosso do Sul's agribusiness sector.
We act both preventively — environmental licensing, land regularization, and Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) filings — and in defense against citations, embargoes, and administrative or judicial proceedings of an environmental nature.
