Facade of the Doering & Darcie office

Our history

Built brick by brick, generation after generation.

More than two decades of practice that begin in study, pass through the higher courts and arrive at a firm with two offices, without ever giving up the close relationship with the client.

The beginning

It all began with study.

The history of Doering & Darcie was born of one attorney's commitment to the law as a lifelong calling. From graduation to the higher courts in Brasília, it was dedication to study and to each client's cause that laid the foundations of what would become the firm.

From that foundation the firm grew, taking on new practice areas, new professionals and a second office, always guided by the same values: judgement, discretion and closeness.

Law degree
The 1970s

The training

The first steps on the law school benches. The graduation gown marks the beginning of a life devoted to the practice of law and to the permanent study of the rules.

Legal library
The 1980s and 90s

Study as method

The building of a body of work and of a practice founded on careful reading. Preventive advice and litigation have walked together from the start.

Practice in Brasília
1998

To the higher courts

The practice reaches Brasília: the Supreme Federal Court, the Federal Courts and the highest bodies. Strategic reading of the courts becomes a hallmark of the work.

Office
The 2000s

Roots in Porto Alegre

The firm establishes itself in Rio Grande do Sul, broadening its practice areas and strengthening relationships that span generations of clients and families.

The firm takes on its present identity. A new office, exposed brick and open doors, brings the tradition of study together with the energy of a multidisciplinary team.

Current team
Today

Two offices, one standard

With offices in Porto Alegre and São Paulo and practice throughout Brazil, we carry on guiding sound decisions, with the same judgement, discretion and precision as ever.

Our manifesto

The best defence begins long before the conflict, in the care taken over each decision.

We believe that practising law is, above all, a relationship of trust. That is why we handle each case closely, with the rigour of those who study and the composure of those who listen.

Tradition is not attachment to the past: it is the continuity of a way of working that respects the client, the time each case needs and the seriousness of the law.
