Presentation of the Consumer Law department
The Brazilian market was transformed after the Consumer Protection Code came into effect. A text ahead of its time, it started a new era in consumer relations, bringing, on the one hand, concreteness in relation to consumer rights, and on the other hand, complexity in commercial transactions. Cabanellos Advocacia understands the importance of providing specialized legal support to companies seeking to ensure compliance and minimize legal risks in their interactions with consumers.
With this purpose in mind, we provide preventive legal consultancy, advising and guiding our clients on the compliance of commercial practices, advertising, contracts and consumer service policies, ensuring that the company acts in accordance with the Consumer Protection Code (CDC – Código de Defesa do Consumidor) and other applicable legal texts.
