Kobre & Kim Expands in Latin America with New Regional Managing Director in São Paulo, Brazil

As part of its continued growth in Latin America, Kobre & Kim has appointed Renata Ramalhosa as Regional Managing Director, based in São Paulo. Renata will expand and enhance relationships with local law firms, strategic advisors, key regional stakeholders, and clients outside of Brazil with Brazilian interests.

Bringing nearly two decades of cross-border trade and investment experience, Renata has held leadership roles in both the private and public sectors. Her deep understanding of international business dynamics positions her well to help clients navigate complex disputes in an increasingly interconnected Brazil.

As the only global law firm in São Paulo focused exclusively on disputes and investigations, Kobre & Kim is uniquely positioned to assist clients with cross-border litigation, international asset recovery, government investigations, and insolvency matters. With a dedicated team in Brazil and extensive global resources, the firm continues helping clients tackle high-stakes disputes with a strategic, cross-border approach.

Chief Strategy Officer Gary Singer noted, “We are uniquely able to serve clients’ cross-jurisdictional needs from both inside and outside of Brazil and look forward to Renata’s addition to our considerable existing resources in the region.”
