Partner

Paulo joined Daniel in March 2021 to work at the Patent Litigation Department. He is a seasoned attorney at law that has been working in the intellectual property field since 2007. Paulo has experience handling highly complex litigation cases in all the areas comprising intellectual property, especially patents, copyrights, trademarks, and industrial designs. More recently, he has been working on strategic lawsuits related to patent validity and infringement pleads. These cases involved game-changing technologies in fields like life sciences, digital systems, and oil & gas.

Apart from intellectual property, Paulo is interested in Art Law, particularly in its interaction with art market studies. He holds a specialization degree in History of Art and Architecture from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, as well as a Master of Sciences (M.Sc.) Degree in Provenance and Collecting Cultures from University of Glasgow, UK.

His dissertation discussing the application of blockchain in the art market was published in the Art Antiquity and Law Journal.
