Pro bono

At MKGV Law, we regard legal practice as a powerful tool to drive positive changes in society. Our commitment to pro bono work reflects the core values that guide us and demonstrates our dedication to promoting the social and economic development of the country in an active and responsible manner.

Among our initiatives, we provide legal support to Acorde, a nonprofit organization that, for the past 23 years, has contributed to the development of children, adolescents, and young people in the municipalities of Embu das Artes and Cotia, in the metropolitan area of São Paulo. This partnership enables an inclusive routine and creates opportunities for a better future.

Our pro bono work also extends to other organizations that generate significant social impact.

We provide legal counsel to the I Know My Rights Institute (IKMR), an organization dedicated to the full protection of refugee children in Brazil. This engagement includes advisory support on strategic matters aimed at strengthening the institution and ensuring the legal security of its initiatives.

“MKGV’s pro bono work reflects our purpose of combining technical excellence and strategic vision with initiatives that promote social transformation. We bring the same level of dedication and quality that guides our client service to delivering effective and sustainable legal solutions for organizations that positively impact society.”
— Ana Cristina Valentim, Partner at MKGV Law

“Pro bono legal work is a way for MKGV to reaffirm its commitment to the responsible use of the legal profession. By supporting relevant initiatives, we aim to contribute effectively to the advancement of projects that generate tangible impact and expand access to fundamental rights.”
— Mirella Kaufman, Partner at MKGV Law
