Martin De Luca Joins Panel Discussing DOJ Investigations into Brazilian Entities

July 20, 2020

The U.S. Department of Justice often investigates Brazilian entities, so Brazil-based clients and their law firms must be aware of the rights they have and common mistakes to avoid. Join Kobre & Kim’s Martin De Luca for a virtual panel discussion hosted by Associação dos Advogados de São Paulo (AASP) on July 23, 10am BRT / 9am ET.

The Portuguese-language panel, “Fundamental Rights in Internal Investigations,” primarily will focus on the rights of people subject to investigations conducted jointly by companies and external law firms. De Luca will bring his experience in U.S.-Latin America investigations to share what the DOJ in particular is often interested in when investigating Brazil-based clients. He will emphasize common mistakes international law firms often make in Brazil, such as when dealing with email as evidence, and discuss the importance of WhatsApp messages for clients and investigators.
