Hire the Best Compliance Specialists
in Brazil

I spent six years as a criminal investigator. Now I run operations and research for people who need the work to hold up when someone checks it. It is the same job with different stakes. Find what is actually there. Confirm it in more than one place. Separate what is established from what is assumed. Write it down so it survives being challenged. Most research reports fail the same way. They read confidently and they cannot be checked. Somewhere in the middle there is a claim with no source behind it, and the person acting on it has no way to know which claim it was. Most operations fail the same way. The process lives in one person's head, nothing is written down, and when that person is unavailable the work stops. Mine do not work like that. Every figure and every source is verified before it reaches you. Every recurring process is documented so someone else can run it. The report tells you plainly what is confirmed, what is likely, and what could not be established. OPERATIONS - Recurring operations owned end to end: intake, tracking, approvals, deadlines, follow through - CRM and pipeline hygiene, document control, records management - Process documentation and SOPs, so the work stops depending on one person - Weekly status and pipeline reporting written for the people who have to decide RESEARCH AND INTELLIGENCE - Market research and competitive landscape, including regulatory and cultural context - Background and information verification on people and companies, from public sources - Contact and company research, with a source and confirmation date on every data point - Structured reports written for someone who has to make a decision, not just read COMPLIANCE AND POLICY - Document review, contract review and legal research - Policy and procedure drafting in plain language that people actually follow - Due diligence support and documentation trails that survive an audit - Confidential and personal data handled under strict legal obligation, which I do every day Where I am different: I am Brazilian, native in Portuguese and fluent in English. If your research or your compliance work touches Brazil or Latin America, I am reading the local sources and the local rules directly rather than working through translation and guesswork. I delivered a paid market and cultural adaptation study on the Brazilian market this year. Right now I own the full weekly content operation for The Gal Project, a media brand for women founders: five channels, a newsletter and a weekly podcast, with approvals routed across several people. Calendar, production, approvals, scheduling, publishing and repurposing. It ships every week. I also coordinate deal operations for an investment and acquisition team, running deal intake, CRM hygiene and document control across CIMs, NDAs and financial statements. Background: law degree and three years in practice, drafting and reviewing contracts and doing legal research. Google Cybersecurity certificate. Selected by the U.S. Department of State for a fully funded academic year in the United States. How I contract: fixed scope, fixed price. Before we start you will know the deliverable, the deadline, and what is not included. Tell me what you need to be sure about, and I will tell you whether it can be established and how long it takes.

I work with foreign companies, entrepreneurs, and professionals entering or operating in Brazil, advising on intellectual property (including trademarks and patents), corporate structuring, immigration, compliance, and contracts. I’m a Brazilian attorney with over 12 years of experience advising international clients on establishing a presence and doing business in Brazil and across Latin America. I work in partnership with my father, a former Federal Prosecutor recognized for his anti-corruption work by Transparency International and the Allard Prize Foundation, now focused on corporate law, compliance and governance through our firm, Carlos Fernando Santos Lima Advogados. I began my career at Bhering Advogados, a well-regarded intellectual property firm, where I worked on trademark and patent matters for international clients, and later brought that experience into my own practice. I am also a certified Data Protection and Privacy Professional (LGPD) by Data Privacy Brasil. I hold an LL.B. and a master’s degree in Translation Studies (UFPR). I work in English, German, French, Spanish and Portuguese, which allows me to navigate legal and linguistic nuances in cross-border matters. My work covers the full cycle of market entry and operations: company formation, contracts, compliance, and risk management. I advise on cross-border agreements such as service agreements, NDAs, licensing terms, MSAs, shareholder agreements, and SaaS-related contracts. I also represent clients in intellectual property matters, including trademark filings, patent translations, and representation before the Brazilian PTO (INPI) in the national phase of PCT applications, with or without PPH. For companies in technology, SaaS, fintech, and data-driven sectors, I assist with the implementation and review of privacy and data protection programs aligned with the LGPD (Brazil), GDPR (Europe), CCPA (California), and HIPAA (US healthcare). This includes governance structures, policies, contractual adjustments, and risk-based compliance strategies. I also act as an external Data Protection Officer (DPO as a Service) for companies that require an independent and legally grounded privacy function. I conduct legal due diligence and assist with regulatory processes, licensing, and risk assessments whenever needed, particularly in contexts involving cross-border operations and sensitive data processing. I also advise individuals and companies on residence and regularization matters in Brazil - including investment-based, corporate-structure, and other residence pathways - and represent clients before Brazilian federal authorities when formal representation is required. As a Brazilian lawyer and legal translator, I also provide specialized translation into Brazilian Portuguese from English, German, French, and Spanish, particularly for patents, contracts, compliance documentation, and regulatory materials. I welcome challenges, so whether you are setting up operations in Brazil, addressing immigration needs, structuring data governance, or managing a more advanced stage of growth, feel free to connect.
