Social Responsibility

We create a positive impact on society

At VBSO Advogados, we believe that making a difference for our clients and employees is only part of our mission. It’s equally important to share the rewards of our success with the society around us. That’s why our firm is deeply committed to social responsibility initiatives, embedding them as a fundamental aspect of our culture. We recognize that by contributing to a better world, we all stand to benefit.

VBSO Institute

Founded in 2021, the VBSO Institute serves as a key extension of VBSO Advogados’ social responsibility efforts, focusing on investing in the education of our most valuable asset and potential for change: children and adolescents.

The Institute is committed to surpassing traditional educational barriers by advancing quality education and fostering a virtuous cycle of personal development. This approach aims to impact future generations, empowering them to realize and sustain their dreams through their own initiative.

The Institute’s projects are supported by education advocates and educational organizations, which expertly guide the Institute’s efforts toward initiatives focused on social justice and equity.

SOMAR

Since 2021, we have provided financial support and volunteered in projects developed by SOMAR. The association, located in the Jardim da Felicidade community in the southern zone of São Paulo, directly serves more than 300 children, teenagers, and young people from Monday to Saturday, and indirectly reaches over 1600 people through extended support to their families. Its goal is to offer opportunities to community residents, enabling them to act and transform their own territory through culture.

Sanfran Jr.

We are also partners with Sanfran Jr., the junior company from the Law School of USP, and we annually host students for immersion days at a law firm during the “Semana+.” During these days, students involved with the junior company visit our firm, learn about our practice areas, work on cases, and experience the day-to-day operations at VBSO Advogados.

“Exposure to areas I had never seen before, the dynamism of the presenters, and their ability to create a comfortable environment for participation and questions, along with the practical application of case learnings, organization, punctuality in training, and the exceptional receptivity and care of all the staff!”

“The care and attention of everyone in the firm were truly noticeable and unique, from the assistance with case resolution to the informal moments during the coffee break. We felt very welcomed and learned about various aspects of areas we would never encounter in law school or would only see superficially. We are all very grateful for the incredible opportunity and for maintaining such a lasting and enriching partnership!”

“In addition to the firm’s infrastructure, the attention of the presenters and their interest in being there. The classes were essential for the personal improvement and professional development of our members.”
