Sound legal counsel.
Tailored to your reality.
At Adilson Correia Sociedade Individual de Advocacia, every mandate is handled with rigorous technical preparation and a genuine commitment to understanding the client's situation before a single strategy is proposed. We operate across four core disciplines — legal advisory, judicial representation, contract and opinion work, and personalised client service — each delivered from our offices in downtown Curitiba, Paraná.
Four disciplines. One unified team.
Each service area is supported by hands-on involvement from the firm's principal, ensuring consistent quality and direct accountability on every matter we handle.
Preventive legal guidance for individuals and businesses — before problems become disputes. Clear answers, structured risk analysis, and practical recommendations.
Full procedural support across civil litigation, from initial filing and interim measures through to appeals and enforcement of judgments.
Drafting, reviewing and negotiating agreements of all types, alongside formal legal opinions that give clients the foundation to make confident decisions.
A client-centred approach that prioritises direct communication, transparency about process and costs, and solutions proportionate to each client's specific circumstances.
Legal Advisory & Consultancy
Uncertainty about legal obligations, rights or exposure is expensive — in time, energy and money. The firm's advisory practice is built around one simple idea: clients deserve clear, actionable answers, not vague hedging. Whether you are an individual navigating a personal legal matter or a business assessing a commercial decision, we begin by listening carefully to your situation before offering any guidance.
Our consultancy work spans both preventive and reactive contexts. Preventive consultancy helps clients structure their affairs correctly from the outset — avoiding disputes, regulatory exposure or contractual traps before they materialise. Reactive consultancy provides rapid, authoritative analysis when a new development demands an immediate legal position.
Structuring decisions and relationships to minimise legal risk before it arises.
Clear legal positions delivered promptly when circumstances change and decisions cannot wait.
Guidance on obligations under applicable legislation and how to meet them in practice.
Long-term legal positioning aligned with the client's personal or commercial objectives.
What's Included
-
Initial Case Assessment A thorough review of the client's situation, documents and objectives before any guidance is given.
-
Written Legal Summaries Where appropriate, a written record of the advice given — useful for internal decision-making and future reference.
-
Risk Mapping Identification and ranking of legal vulnerabilities in a client's current situation or proposed course of action.
-
Ongoing Retainer Options Clients who require regular legal support can engage the firm on a continuing advisory basis, ensuring consistent access to qualified counsel.
-
Multi-Matter Coordination When a client's situation spans several legal areas simultaneously, we coordinate across those threads to provide cohesive, conflict-free guidance.
-
Plain-Language Communication All advice is communicated in clear, accessible terms — without unnecessary legal jargon obscuring the practical message.
Judicial Representation & Litigation Support
When a dispute cannot be resolved outside the courts, effective representation requires more than legal knowledge — it requires procedural rigour, strategic thinking, and the discipline to build a case that withstands scrutiny at every stage. The firm handles the full arc of judicial proceedings, from the initial assessment of a client's position and the drafting of the first petition through to the enforcement of a final judgment.
We appear before the courts of Curitiba and the state of Paraná across a range of civil matters, always with a clear procedural strategy mapped out in advance and regularly reviewed as the case develops. Clients are kept informed at each significant stage — we do not believe in leaving people to wonder what is happening with their case.
What's Included
-
Case Viability Analysis Before committing to litigation, a candid assessment of the merits, likely costs and realistic outcomes — so clients can make an informed choice about whether to proceed.
-
Petition Drafting & Filing Technically precise drafting of initial petitions, responses, and procedural motions tailored to the specific facts and applicable law.
-
Evidence Preparation Organisation and presentation of documentary, testimonial and technical evidence in the format and sequence most persuasive to the court.
-
Interim & Precautionary Measures Prompt pursuit of injunctions and other urgent relief where delay would cause irreparable prejudice to the client's position.
-
Appeals & Higher Court Proceedings Strategic evaluation of appeal prospects and, where warranted, the preparation and filing of appellate submissions seeking reversal or modification of unfavourable decisions.
-
Judgment Enforcement Active pursuit of all available enforcement mechanisms once a favourable judgment is obtained, ensuring the client actually receives what the court has awarded.
Contract Drafting, Review & Legal Opinions
Poorly drafted or unreviewed contracts are one of the most common — and most avoidable — sources of legal disputes. Whether you are entering into a commercial relationship, acquiring an asset, formalising a business arrangement, or protecting intellectual or personal rights, the terms of your agreement matter enormously. The firm provides comprehensive contract work: drafting instruments from scratch, reviewing and marking up documents presented by the other side, and negotiating terms on the client's behalf.
We also prepare formal legal opinions — structured written analyses of a legal question that give clients, their boards, or their financial partners a documented, professional assessment of a legal position. These are frequently required in financing transactions, corporate governance decisions, regulatory applications, and complex commercial negotiations where a verbal answer is not sufficient.
Bespoke agreements built around the client's specific transaction, relationship and risk tolerance.
Clause-by-clause analysis of contracts presented by counterparties, with clear identification of problematic provisions.
Active participation in negotiating contract terms, either directly or by advising the client on their position.
Written, signed analyses of specific legal questions for use in decision-making, regulatory filings or third-party reliance.
What's Included
-
Service & Supply Agreements Clearly structured contracts governing the provision of services or supply of goods, including scope, payment, liability and termination clauses.
-
Partnership & Cooperation Agreements Formalisation of commercial partnerships, joint ventures and cooperative arrangements with appropriate governance and exit provisions.
-
Real Estate & Asset Purchase Contracts Review and drafting of agreements for the acquisition, lease or disposal of real property and other significant assets.
-
Non-Disclosure & Confidentiality Agreements Protection of sensitive information in commercial negotiations and business relationships.
-
Contractual Dispute Letters & Notices Formal written notices required under contract terms — default notices, cure demands, termination letters — drafted with legal precision and tactical awareness.
-
Formal Legal Opinions Written analyses addressing specific legal questions, signed by the firm's principal and suitable for reliance by third parties such as financiers, regulators or boards.
Personalised & Direct Client Service
The firm operates as a sole-practitioner practice by deliberate choice. Adilson Correia handles each mandate personally — clients are not passed to junior staff, and matters are not managed from a distance. Every client receives direct access to qualified counsel who knows their case in full detail.
This model is particularly valuable for individuals and smaller businesses who have often experienced the frustration of engaging large firms only to find their work delegated to the least experienced member of the team. Here, the person you first speak with is the person who does the work.
Clients communicate directly with Adilson Correia throughout the matter — no gatekeeping, no intermediaries, no handoffs.
The strict confidentiality of the attorney–client relationship is maintained without exception. Sensitive matters are handled with the discretion they require.
The firm operates Monday to Friday, 09:00–18:00, with clear expectations on turnaround times communicated at the outset of each engagement.
Progress reports and case updates are communicated in clear, jargon-free language so clients always understand exactly where their matter stands.
How a new matter begins
From first contact to active engagement, our intake process is designed to be straightforward, transparent and efficient — so legal support begins without unnecessary delay.
Reach us by telephone or email during business hours. Briefly describe your situation and what you need. We will confirm availability and next steps promptly.
We meet — in person at our Curitiba office or by telephone — to understand your matter in full. You are encouraged to bring all relevant documents and to speak candidly; everything discussed is strictly confidential.
Following the consultation, we conduct a detailed technical assessment of your legal position: applicable law, procedural options, realistic outcomes and potential risks. This forms the basis of our strategic recommendation.
We present a clear written scope of work and transparent fee proposal. There are no hidden charges. You will understand exactly what work is included and what the engagement will cost before signing anything.
Once instructed, work begins immediately. You receive regular, substantive updates and are consulted on all material decisions. The matter is managed directly by the firm's principal from start to finish.
What sets us apart
Size does not determine quality. What matters is the attention, skill and commitment brought to each individual case — and on those measures, we do not cut corners.
The firm's practice is guided by the ethical standards of the Brazilian Bar Association (OAB) and by a personal commitment to honest, straightforward dealing with every client and counterparty.
Not every legal problem requires full-scale litigation. We counsel clients on proportionate responses — sometimes a well-drafted letter resolves a dispute that would otherwise become a costly proceeding.
Legal advice is only as good as the research and analysis behind it. Every position we take is grounded in applicable legislation, case law and procedural practice — not assumptions.
We are interested in the client's long-term legal wellbeing, not just the immediate matter. Where we see risks or opportunities beyond the current instruction, we say so.
Based in downtown Curitiba, the firm has direct familiarity with the local courts, judicial culture and regulatory environment of Paraná — knowledge that materially shapes how cases are handled.
Fee structures are discussed openly and agreed in writing before any work begins. Clients are never surprised by an invoice that does not reflect what was agreed at the outset.
