Bespoke Legal Architecture for Cross-Border Operations, Growth, Governance, and Compliance
Sobral Cruz Legal Services is a Canadian law firm advising clients at the intersection of international trade, business structuring, and regulatory compliance.
We specialize in guiding companies between Brazil and Canada – helping Brazilian businesses land in Canada, Canadian buyers access Brazilian markets, and cross-border ventures operate with legal certainty. Our approach integrates legal infrastructure, strategy, and execution, ensuring that every step supports growth, governance, and sustainable international expansion.
Our Approach
With a career spanning Ontario’s Ministry of the Attorney General, BC’s Crime Victim Assistance Program, and private practice in Canada and Brazil, Susana Sobral Cruz leads the firm with a focus on legal architecture that integrates governance, compliance, and expansion strategy.
Our team operates bilingually in English and Portuguese, enabling clients to navigate not just regulatory frameworks, but also the cultural and commercial dynamics that shape cross-border business.
We work with founders, mid-market operators, and public agencies in industries including agri-food, beverages, consumer goods, mining, natural resources, and tech. Employment and civil representation are pursued selectively, focusing on matters that engage broader questions of governance and corporate responsibility.
