On the record

Labour Lawyer | Specialist in Employment Law and Labour Relations With broad experience in employment law and labour relations, serving internal clients (HR and Operations), I have built a solid career in consulting and legal representation for companies in Portugal and Brazil. I work in labour compliance, contract management, dispute resolution, and HR workforce restructuring, ensuring that organisations navigate complex labour regulations effectively. With more than ten years in the field, I have advised HR teams on employment policies, regulatory compliance, and risk mitigation, supporting internal investigations, disciplinary proceedings, and dismissals. I have a strong ability to adapt to different legal frameworks and a focus on practical solutions for dynamic and international corporate environments. As core competencies, I can cite work in Employment Law, with experience in drafting contracts, workforce restructuring, dispute resolution, conducting disciplinary proceedings, and handling workplace accident matters; corporate legal advisory with a focus on labour compliance, risk mitigation, and development of internal policies; litigation and negotiation, including legal representation, class/collective actions, collective bargaining, mediation, and arbitration; regulatory compliance in the context of international labour law, data protection, due diligence, and labour inspections; and the use of technology and legal research (jurimetrics, process management, and AI applied to law). I can highlight as key results: assertive advisory to companies to ensure compliance with labour legislation, reducing risks and securing regulatory alignment; successful performance in labour litigation; effective handling of disciplinary proceedings and negotiation of employment contract termination agreements; development of corporate employment policies for international companies, ensuring cross-border compliance; legal research on workplace accidents, contributing to improvements in internal policies and risk reduction; continuous support to human resources departments and company managers; and integration of technological tools to streamline contract review and the management of processes and contracts.
