Practice Areas
We work in various areas of law to better serve you
Civil Law
We operate in all areas of Civil Law, providing advice and consulting, as well as defending clients' interests in legal proceedings. Civil Law is the broadest area of Private Law and encompasses a series of divisions. Note, for example, that Contract Law, Real Estate Law, Family Law, and Inheritance Law are all part of this branch of law, although they are treated separately at the Silva Ribeiro, Di Gioia & Sahid Advogados Associados law firm. We highlight our work in the following areas, among others: Extracontractual obligations: liability for material and moral damages; Personality rights, image rights, copyright; Real rights: property, possession, mortgage, pledge, usufruct, possessory issues, reivindicatory actions, demarcation, partition, adverse possession, usufruct, easements, etc.
Commercial Law
In addition to our important role in negotiating, drafting, and analyzing the necessary contractual instruments in commercial relationships, our firm also excels in the following activities, among others: bankruptcy and composition proceedings; collection and enforcement of obligations and credit instruments; assistance in negotiations; review of banking contracts.
Real Estate Law
We are able to provide the most comprehensive legal advice in real estate ventures, in their various forms and specificities.

Inheritance Law
The word succession, in its legal sense, has two meanings: a broad one and a narrow one. The first applies to all derivative ways of acquiring property – inter vivos succession – which unfolds in the branch of real estate law that deserves individualized treatment by us. In the narrow sense, the idea of succession resides in the permanence of a legal relationship that endures and subsists after death; it translates into the transmission of someone's assets, after death, to their heirs and successors. We highlight our work in the following activities, among others: inventories and partitions; wills; estate planning; annulment of wills; judicial authorizations for the practice of legal acts by the estate.
Family Law
Family Law involves the intimate relationships between family members. Therefore, it is much more reasonable that any problems that may arise be resolved through conciliation, dispensing with litigation whenever possible. Thus, we strive to resolve family issues through conciliation, but when necessary, we are equipped to act judicially in resolving conflicts. Our expertise includes, among others: prenuptial agreements; judicial separations (consensual or contentious); divorces; annulments of marriage; establishment and dissolution of stable unions; precautionary measures of separation of bodies, search and seizure of minors, and inventory of assets; alimony actions; child custody, visitation rights; suspension and loss of parental authority; paternity investigation actions, annulment of birth registration, and paternity denial actions; judicial consent; interdiction and emancipation; alienation and encumbrance of assets belonging to incapacitated individuals.

In addition to preventative advice, we act judicially in the interest of our clients, invoking the public policy provisions of the Consumer Protection Code. We highlight our work in the following activities, among others: drafting and reviewing contractual instruments based on consumer protection legislation; administrative defenses before specialized bodies in response to complaints filed by consumers;
