34 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE THROUGHOUT THE BRAZILIAN TERRITORY AND WITH INTERNATIONAL LEGAL ACTIONS
A history of 34 years
In 1988, after working as a tax auditor for the brazilian revenue service for 12 years, and having conducted more than 250 foreign trade audits, reviewing the import and export operations of the major companies in minas gerais in inspection procedures, the lawyer and professor Homero Leonardo Lopes started his own law firm to provide Legal and Customs Consultancy services to the private sector. In 1996, he founded HLL Advogados with attorney Fernando Pieri Leonardo, now a master in tax law from the federal university of Minas Gerais. In 1997, Flávia Pieri Leonardo, a lawyer who had recently graduated from Milton Campos Law School, joined the firm.
